Target ID 
Target signals contain both ferrous and 
conductivity information. This is digitally 
processed and results in a number being 
displayed that distinguishes between dierent 
types of metal.
Target ID numbers range from –4 to 44 on the 
X-Terra 305 and –9 to 48 on the X-Terra 505. 
Negative numbers represent ferrous targets 
and positive numbers represent nonferrous 
targets.
Numeric ID 
These numbers have another function. They 
are also used when adjusting the menu 
settings (Sensitivity, Noise Cancel, Threshold, 
Volume, Tones and Ground Balance) showing 
the numerical value selected.
All Metal 
AM indicates that the all metal pattern 
has been selected. This pattern has no 
discrimination and will allow signals from all 
types of metals, both ferrous and nonferrous.
Patterns 
Preset discrimination patterns are used to suit 
dierent search preferences. X-Terra 305 has 
2 patterns, X-Terra 505 has 3 patterns (Preset 
Discrimination Patterns, p. 30).
Depth Indicator 
The depth indicator is a relative guide to how 
deep a target is. The more arrows displayed, 
the deeper the target is likely to be.
1 arrow is approx. 0–2” (0–5 cm) 
2 = 2–4” (5–10 cm) 
3 = 4–6” (10–15 cm) 
4 = 6–8” (15–20 cm) 
5 = 8–10” (20–25 cm)
