Discrimination (DISC.)
Disc. is the ability of the device to ignore all metals below a certain Target ID. In the DISC.
process, the filtered ID range is shown with lines on the ID scale and every 2 consecutive IDs
are represented with 1 line. For example, if you set the Disc. to 30, 15 lines will be shown
between the 0-30 ID range on the scale and the device will not produce an audio response
for any metals with IDs between 0-30.
DISC. setting is disabled for GEN mode only. For all other modes, the factory default value
will be displayed on screen at start up.
In order to change the DISC. value, select the DISC. option from the SETTINGS and decrease
or increase the value using the plus (+) or minus (-) buttons. Please remember that certain
targets, other than the ones you want to ignore, may also be missed or their signals may
become weaker when using the DISC. setting.
In the case of receiving multiple IDs for the same target - let's say 35 and 55 - due to the orientation
of the target or the composition of the metal itself, if you set the DISC. to 40, because
35 will fall in the filtered range, the signal strength as well as the depth may diminish.
NOTE: DISC. setting works inversely proportional to depth up to level 15 in all modes. In
other words, as the DISC. is increased up to 15, stability will increase but depth will be
reduced and vice versa. Above 15 though, both depth and noise will increase.
