    Frequently Asked Questions

    How can I tell the difference between different types of metal detected?

    The metal detector emits different tones for different types of metals. Low tones indicate ferrous objects like nails and steel, medium tones are for newer pennies and small gold objects, while high tones indicate silver, copper, and large brass items. The display will also show the probable type of metal detected based on the target identification scale.

    What should I do if my metal detector is beeping erratically?

    Erratic beeping can be caused by electromagnetic interference (EMI) from power lines, electronic devices, or highly mineralized ground. Try reducing the sensitivity setting to minimize interference. Also, make sure to move away from potential sources of EMI and use the detector outdoors for more reliable operation.

    How do I use the Notch feature to filter specific types of metals?

    To use the Notch feature, press the menu button until "NOTCH" is illuminated on the display. Use the arrow buttons to move through the target categories and selectively include or exclude them from detection. This allows you to focus on specific types of metal while ignoring others, even if they fall within the same general discrimination range.

    What is Ground Balance, and how does it affect detection?

    Ground Balance is the detector’s ability to ignore naturally occurring minerals in the soil, reducing false signals. The Alpha metal detector has an automated ground-balancing feature, which eliminates interference from most types of soil without manual adjustment. This feature ensures more accurate detection of actual metal objects, particularly in mineral-rich areas.
    How can I accurately determine the depth of a detected object?
    The depth of a detected object is displayed on the left side of the LCD screen, showing a number from 0 to 9 inches. This depth reading is most accurate for coin-sized objects. For larger or irregularly shaped objects, the depth reading may vary. Practicing proper sweep techniques and approaching the target from multiple angles can help improve depth estimation accuracy.
    What does the Discrimination feature do, and how should I use it?
    The Discrimination feature allows you to eliminate specific categories of metals from detection. By pressing the arrow buttons, you can increase or decrease the discrimination level, removing metals like iron or aluminum from detection. This feature helps in avoiding unwanted items like nails and pull-tabs, focusing on more valuable targets such as coins and jewelry.
