LCD TARGET DISPLAY

-Motion modes only

READING THE DISPLAY

The LCD Target Display is accurate in

the Motion Modes only.

The Liquid Crystal Display (LCD) shows

the PROBABLE identification of the

targeted metal, as well as the PROBABLE

depth of the target, in inches.

Pass the search coil repeatedly over a

target, and observe the target readout.

The detector will register a repeated,

unchanging target identification when a

buried target has been located and

identified. If, upon repeated passes over

the same spot, the target identification

reads inconsistently, the target is probably

a trash item, or oxidized metal. With

practice, you will learn to unearth only the

repeatable signals.

The segment identifications are highly

accurate, when detecting the objects

described on the label. For example, if

you pass the coil repeatedly over a nickel,

your detector will repeatedly register a

nickel. However, if you repeatedly register

a nickel, for an unknown buried object,

you could be detecting some other

metallic object with the same magnetic

signature as a nickel.

GOLD TARGETS Gold objects will

register on the left side of the LCD scale.

Gold flakes will register under Iron/Foil

Small gold items will register under Pull

Tab.

Medium-sized gold items will register

under S-caps.

Large gold items will register as Zinc 1¢.

SILVER TARGETS: Silver objects will

register to the right of the scale, under

25¢, 50¢, or $1, depending on the size

of the object. The larger the object, the

farther to the right it will register.

IRON/FOIL: All but very large iron and

aluminum objects will register on the

far-left side of the scale. This could

indicate a worthless item such as a nail,

or a more valuable historic iron relic.

PULL TAB: All older pull tabs from

beverage cans will register here. Most

newer pull tabs will register here. Many

gold rings will also register here.

5¢: Nickels and newer pull tabs register

here.

S-CAPS: Older screw caps from glass

bottles will register here. Large gold

rings, like a class ring, could also register

here. Some non-U.S. coins of recent

vintage will also register here.

1¢ ZINC: Newer pennies (post-1982)

will register here. Many non-U.S. coins

of recent vintage will also register here.

10¢: Dimes and pre-1982 pennies will

register here. Older, pre-1982, pennies

are composed of copper, which has a

metallic signature similar to a dime.

Caution: The target indications are visual

references. Many other types of metal can

fall under any one of these categories. You

will experience a trash-to-treasure ratio

when treasure hunting. The more you

practice, the lower you will push your trash-

to-treasure ratio. While the Camo-LS will

eliminate or indicate the presence of most

common trash items, it is impossible to

accurately classify ALL buried objects. The

LCD provides a visual reference to minimize

the detection of trash objects. By using the

target ID in conjunction with discrimination

control and the three-tone audio

identification system (discussed later), you

can further reduce the trash-to-treasure ratio.
