preset disCrimination patterns

The combinations of accepted and rejected
segments are referred to as patterns. The
X-Terra has preset discrimination patterns
that have been customised to detect general
desired targets such as coins and jewellery.
The X-Terra 305 has an all metal pattern and
2 preset patterns. The X-Terra 505 has an all
metal pattern and 3 preset patterns.
Patterns 1,2 and 3 can be edited to create
your own custom discrimination patterns.
Edited patterns are automatically saved and
remembered even if the batteries are removed.
