Audio Tones
38
The next setting to analyze is the number of tones you
want to hear. This is simply a matter of preference. And
depending on the X-TERRA model you are using, the
number of available tones varies.
The 305 oers the exibility to hunt with one tone,
two tones, three tones or multiple (12) tones. The 505
and 705 each oer one tone, two tones, three tones,
four tones or multiple (19 & 28 respectively) tones. One
tone means that all accepted targets will produce the
same tone. Two tones break all targets into one of two
tone groups; three tones break all the targets into one
of three tone groups; four tones puts each target into
one of four tones. And in the multiple tones, each notch
segment will produce a separate tone.

Some folks like to dig when their detector beeps, and don’t care what sound it
makes. Just as long as it makes one. And there are those, such as myself, who
enjoy coin hunting “by ear”. If I can determine the ferrous or conductive property
values of a particular target, simply by hearing a tone assigned to the notch
segment that target is associated with, I maximize my hunt time by not having to
glance down and look at the display.
