Features:
Elimination: reference to a metal being "eliminated" means that the detector will not emit a tone, nor light up an indicator, when a specified object passes through the search coil's detection field.
Discrimination: When the detector emits different tones for different types of metals, and when the detector“eliminates" certain metals, we refer to this as the detector"discriminating” among different types of metals. Discrimination an essential feature of professional metal detectors. Discrimination allows the user to rubbish trash and other undesirable objects.
Relic: A relic is an object of interest by reason of its age or its association with the past. May relics are made of iron, but
can also be made of bronze or precious-metals.
Pinpointing: Pinpointing is the process of finding the exact location of a buried object. Long-buried metals can appear to the eye exactly like the surrounding soil, and can therefore be very hard to isolate from the soil.
