Notice that the nickel is now detected. You have "notched in"
the nickel.
In categories covered with a slash, objects will not be detected.

Hold an object over the search coil.
All metal objects are now detected.
The object's DEPTH is displayed, in inches, in the center
of the display.
Pitch and volume increase as objects get closer to the coil.

The two-digit PHASE number displayed on the screen indicates the type of
ground mineralization. The number is continuously displayed in all
detection modes except Pinpoint, and is continually updated. Ground
conditions can change within a given search area, sometimes slowly, and
sometimes quite abruptly. This number cannot be adjusted by the user.
Some typical ground mineralization types are:
0 – 10 Wet salt and alkali
5 – 25 Metallic iron
26 – 39 Very few soils in this range -- occasionally
40 – 75 Red, yellow, and brown iron-bearing clay minerals
75 – 95 Magnetite and other black iron minerals

This 2-digit number on the bottom-left of the display can represent any
of the following:
• Internal Ground Balance setting (GND BAL): from 00 to 99
• Gain: 20 values from 5 to 99 in steps of 5
• Threshold: 19 values from -9 to 9
• Discrimination Setting: from 0 to 65
• Frequency: 1, 2, or 3
• Audio Tones Selection: d1, d2, d3, d4 or A1, A2, A3, A4
If the user is not moving any knobs or pressing any touchpads, then the
number represents the internal ground balance setting, and "GND
BAL" is illuminated.
"GND BAL" disappears when the user selects a control, and the
SETTING then represents the current value for the activated knob or
touch pad.
