Jalas BOUNTY HUNTER DISC33-R Discovery 3300 [10/24] Basic operation

ALL METAL MODE (Default Operation)

The detector defaults to ALL METAL mode after powering on. In this

mode, all types of metals will be detected. An object’s PROBABLE

identification is indicated by the arrows at the top of the display. In

addition, the PROBABLE depth of coin-sized objects is indicated by

the rectangular segment indicators on the left side of the display. All

detected objects will cause the depth indicator to illuminate. The

depth indication is not accurate for larger objects; however, it will

provide accurate relative depth indications. The greater the distance

an object is from the search coil, the greater its depth value.

DISC/ A-M Touch Pad

Pressing this touch pad will cause the

detector to toggle between two

operating modes, DISCRIMINATION

and ALL-METAL. If the detector is in the

ALL-METAL mode (the default mode),

pressing the touch pad will change the

detector into DISCRIMINATION mode.

If the detector is in the

DISCRIMINATION mode, pressing the

touch pad will change the detector into

ALL-METAL mode.

DISCRIMINATION MODE

Discrimination is used to eliminate unwanted objects from detection.

To enter this mode, from ALL-METAL mode, press the DISC/A-M touch pad.

After pressing DISC/A-M, the detector will:

• Beep twice

• Display 3 "R"s under the left-most segments, Iron 1, 2 & 3

Ferrous objects will not be detected in DISCRIMINATION mode.

Heavily oxidized ferrous objects will sometimes, however, be

detected, usually with a high tone and an indication to the right

of the target identification scale.

To increase the level of discrimination, press the DISCRIMINATION

▲

touch pad. Each time the ▲ pad is depressed, an additional "R" will

appear, thus eliminating from detection the objects which fall into the

corresponding categories.
