TONES: Number of Tones Selection
In Discrimination mode, the OMEGA indicates target type by audio tone.
The TONES button allows the user to select one of four different ways to group
target types by tone.
Your selection depends on personal preference and search objectives. For
example, coin shooters usually select d3 or d4. Relic hunters might select d1 or
d2, depending on search area conditions.
In Auto-Tune mode, the TONES button allows the user to vary the pitch of the
base tone.
See page 18 for a detailed description of the tones provided for each selection.
NOTCH: Selective Target Inclusion or Exclusion
The purpose of the NOTCH function is to change the detection status of a target
category.
• If a category was not eliminated from detection before being "notched," then
notching the category will eliminate it from detection.
• If a category was eliminated from detection before being "notched," (i.e. the
category's icon was not illuminated), then notching the category will return
the category to detection.
Upon each press of NOTCH, a target icon will flash.
Each subsequent press will move the flashing icon to the right.
The following target categories can be notched in or out:
Iron, Foil, Nickel, Tab, S-Cap, Zinc
After the Zinc category, pressing NOTCH will exit the NOTCH function.
To select a category for notching, press NOTCH until the desired icon flashes.
After a few seconds, the flashing will time out and the current target category will
be notched.
Practice pressing NOTCH a few times and its function will become obvious.
The NOTCH feature is not available in Auto Tune Mode.
CONTROL SETTING DISPLAY
The setting for each control is displayed as a 2-digit number on the bottom right
of the screen. Each time you turn a control knob, or press FREQ or TONES, the
setting for that control is immediately displayed below the word "SETTING."
This 2-digit display value will revert back to the Ground Balance setting after a
control is not adjusted for a few seconds.
When the SETTING value represents the Ground Balance setting,
"GROUND" will be displayed under the number.
