Lcd Target Display - Bounty Hunter Sharp Shooter II Owner's Manual

LCD TARGET DISPLAY

Please refer to the display on your
detector and reference the TARGET-ID
categories below applicable to your
model (not all detectors include all of
these categories).
READING THE DISPLAY
The Liquid Crystal Display (LCD) shows
the PROBABLE identification of the
targeted metal.
The detector will register a consistent
target identification, upon each sweep of
the coil, 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. However, if an
object registers in a given category for
an unknown buried object, you could
be detecting a metallic object other than
the object described on the label, but
with the same metallic signature. Also,
the greater the distance between the
target and the coil, the less accurate the
target identification.
GOLD TARGETS Gold objects will register
toward the middle or left-of-center on the
LCD scale.
Gold flakes may register under iron.
Small gold items may register under foil
or 5¢.
Large gold items will register toward the
center of the scale.
SILVER TARGETS: Silver objects will
register to the right of the scale, under
dime or higher.
IRON: All sizes of iron 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.
- motion modes only
FOIL: Aluminum foil, such as a gum
wrapper, will register as foil. A small
broken piece of pull tab may also
register here.
5¢: Most newer pull-tabs from beverage
cans, the type intended to stay attached
to the can, will register here. Many gold
rings will also register here.
ALUM: Older pull tabs, which always
detached completely from the can,
register here. Many medium size gold
ring also register here.
PT (pull-tabs):
beverage cans will register here. Few
newer pull-tabs will also register here.
Many gold rings will also register here.
S-CAP: 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.
Zinc: Medium conductivity objects and
many non-U.S. coins of recent vintage
are classified here.
The Target Identification Categories to
the right of the display, such as copper
coins, 10¢, DIME, 25¢, Quarter, 50¢, $1
accurately identify these U.S. coins.
When used in areas outside the U.S.,
these categories identify coins or metal
objects of high relative conductivity
(such as silver coins or relics), or large
objects made of any type of metal.
Caution: The target indications are visual
references. Many other types of metal
can fall under any one of these
categories. While the detector will
eliminate or indicate the presence of
most common trash items, it is
impossible to accurately classify ALL
buried objects.
