MODE
COIN & JEWELRY MODE
*Trigger (on hand grip);
Center Position "Primary Searching" (tradition-
al DISC control) . In other words with the Trigger
on the hand grip in the center position, the DISC
control works like most traditional metal detectors
in that metal items below the DISC control setting
are suppressed (quiet or broken) by the audio and
metal items accepted by the DISC control setting
produce a smoother solid audio beep.
Forward Position (Alternate Mode) "Pull Tab
Range Notched Out (suppressed)".
In other words with the Trigger on the hand grip in
the forward position, the typical pull tab range is
rejected regardless of the DISC controls position. If
you are accepting nickels, pull tabs above that set-
ting on the DISC control range are still suppressed
(quiet or broken) by the audio.
Squeezed and held "Pinpointing/Depth Read-
ing". When operating in the Coin & Jewelry
MODE when the Trigger on the hand grip is
squeezed and held, the display provides a screen
that indicates the depth of coin sized targets. Once
released the trigger will automatically return to the
Center "Primary Search" position.
*DUAL CONTROL DISC "P" Preset
While operating in the Coin & Jewelry MODE
The DUAL CONTROL functions as a traditional
discrimination control. Further clockwise settings
provide greater degrees of trash metal rejection.
Further counterclockwise settings provide lesser
degrees of trash metal rejection.
Controls
The MODE toggle selects the operating MODE or
type of searching desired on that particular outing.
Major changes occur with the selection between
the three available operating MODEs. For example
the function and information of the display changes
between the three MODEs, the function and avail-
able features of the TRIGGER switch on the hand
grip changes between the three MODEs, and the
DUAL CONTROL function changes between the
MODEs. For quick fi eld reference, the silk screen
painted on the bottom of the control box is provided
to simplify these changes and features.
