Learn - Accepting a Target

tick icon will flash
To create a Discrimination Pattern that
accepts a target:
Fill in the Smartfind window:
Press the shift button next to the Reject All/
Accept All icon. This fills in the Smartfind
window, rejecting all targets and prepares
the window for learning the
new target.
Change the size of the cursor:
Press the lower left hand shift button to
change the cursor size (small, medium
or large). The size of the cursor sets
how 'loosely' the targets ferrous and
conductivity characteristics are recorded.
A large cursor will recognise a wider area
of Pattern as that target, a small cursor
will give a 'tighter' Pattern but may cause
slightly altered or damaged targets to be
ignored.
Learn (accept) the target:
1 Place the target on the ground.
2 Press the upper left shift button next to the
tick (accept) icon. The tick icon will begin
to flash, indicating that the next detected
target will clear an area of pixels, creating
a Discrimination Pattern that accepts that
detected target.
3 Wave the coil several times above the
desired target until the detector learns it by
clearing an area in the Smartfind window.
The Explorer SE needs to detect the target
consistently to accept it in the Smartfind
window. If you have more than one target,
repeat the procedure for each one.
4 Press the shift button next to the flashing
tick to disable the LEARN option.
Be sure to save your new Discrimination
Pattern, otherwise all changes will be lost
once the detector is turned off (pg. 48).

To create a Discrimination Pattern that
rejects a target:
Clear the Smartfind window:
Press the shift button next to the Reject
All/Accept All icon. This clears the
Smartfind window, accepting all targets
and preparing the window for learning
the new target.
Change the size of the cursor:
Press the lower left hand shift button to
change the cursor size (small, medium
or large). The size of the cursor sets how
'loosely' the target is matched for each
successive pass of the coil.
Learn (reject) the target:
1 Place the target on the ground.
2 Press the upper left shift button next
to the cross (reject) icon. The cross icon
will begin to flash, indicating that the
next detected target will fill in an area
of pixels, creating a Discrimination
Pattern that rejects that detected
target.
3 Wave the coil several times above the
desired target until the detector learns
it by filling in an area in the Smartfind
window. The Explorer SE needs to
detect the target consistently to reject
it in the Smartfind window. If you
have more than one target, repeat the
procedure for each one.
4 Press the shift button next to the
flashing cross to disable the LEARN
option.
Be sure to save your new Discrimination
Pattern, otherwise all changes will be lost
once the detector is turned off (pg. 48).
