GLOSSARY OF TERMS
GLOSSARY OF TERMS
Iron Mask One of the Explorer II’s Smartfind displays. The Iron Mask function
rejects objects with ferrous properties. This level of ferrous rejection
is represented with a dark ‘curtain’ which moves across the
horizontal dimension of the Smartfind screen as the Iron Mask is
adjusted.
Learn One of Explorer II’s Advanced displays. Learn allows the user to
accept or reject certain targets to create a personalized
discrimination pattern.
Mineralized ground Ground containing certain minerals which can cause false signals to
be given. Mineralized ground is handled automatically by the
Explorer’s ground compensation.
Nickel Metal Hydride (NiMH) Nickel Metal Hydride batteries are the modern equivalent of older
NiCad (Nickel Cadmium) batteries. NiMH batteries have a longer
life-span and are not affected by memory to the same degree.
Non-ferrous Not containing iron. Non-ferrous objects or non-magnetic metals
(such as silver or copper coins, gold jewelry, etc).
Pinpoint Function allowing an object to be precisely located. Pinpoint
overrides the automatic motion detection and discrimination settings
of the Explorer II.
Quickstart mode The Explorer II’s basic operating mode.
Recovery Recovery, one of the Explorer II’s Advanced options, allows the
user to modify the way the discrimination process works and affects
the audio and display responses to target characteristics.
Response The signal or audible indication of a target. Also a menu affecting the
audio response of the detector.
Search coil The search coil is the circular plate swept across the ground surface
during detecting. It transmits electromagnetic signals into the ground
and receives the response.
