Tones
The detector will sound three tones for different types of metal, with the built-in audio
identification system sounding a unique tone for each of three categories of metal. This
makes it easier to identify the metal being detected.
A low tone will sound for IRON, 5¢, foil, bottle caps or nickel. A medium tone sounds for P-
TAB, ZN, 1¢ (aluminium pull tabs, zinc, or copper items). A high tone will sound for 25¢, and
brass or silver items.
