* The length and width of the scanned area by zooming in and out on
ground image,
* The 3D graphs of all target signals with target separation according
to metal groups.
In addition, this advanced detection ground allows you to track back
your scan within a certain period of time and see the detected targets.
DETECTION SCREEN WITHOUT IPTU SENSOR
The functions of the target ID scale, the magnetic mineralization
indicator, the ground balance window, and the Drift-Metal bar are
the same as those in the detection screen with the IPTU sensor. For
this reason, these are not explained again in this section. If you wish,
please read the section above titled ''Detection Screen with IPTU
Sensor''.
(1) Target ID Indicator
Upon target detection, the ID will be displayed here. It ranges from 00
to 99 and gives an idea to the user about what the target may be.
For more details on target ID, please read the relevant section of the
manual.
(2) Target Detection Screen
While searching, the signals, as well as the signal strengths of metals,
positive rocks, and positive drifts can be observed in this section.
The target signals are defined by different colors just like in the color
ID scale. Ferrous metals are shown in red, and non-ferrous metals are
with yellow and green colors. The signals of target IDs discriminated
out by Discrimination and Notch Filter settings are indicated with gray
color.

INVENIO has 6 search modes, designed for different terrains and
targets. 3 of these modes are static (Basic, Expert and Ground Anomaly
& Cavity) and 3 are dynamic (All Metal, Fast and Deep) modes.
Static modes are non-motion modes. In other words, the device will
generate an audio response when you hold the coil stationary without
swinging over the target. The audio response increases in volume as
the coil approaches the target. These modes are recommended for
larger and deeper metals.
Dynamic modes, on the other hand, are motion modes. You must
sweep the search coil from side-to-side to detect metal. If the search
coil does not move, the device will not provide any audio responses
even if the coil is over a metal target. These modes are used to detect
smaller targets such as coins.
The device will start in Basic mode upon initial start up. To change the
search mode, press the SETTINGS button and select MODE. You can
navigate between the modes using the right and left buttons and select
the one you wish.
All modes, except for the Ground Anomaly & Cavity, will work in both
screens. The Ground Anomaly & Cavity mode will work in the detection
screen with the sensor only. Detection screen selection does not have
direct effect on the operation of the modes. The main difference between
the 2 screens is as follows: When searching in the detection screen
without the IPTU sensor, the device detects targets and displays their
IDs only. On the other hand, while searching in the detection screen with
the IPTU sensor, apart from the IDs, the device also provides the instant
depth, shape and 3D graphs of detected targets.
Non-Motion Modes
IMPORTANT! For a more stable operation, try keeping the coil
consistently at the same height above the ground where you retuned
the detector.
IMPORTANT! If you retune the detector over metal, the drift will be in
the negative side (in the DRIFT direction on the Drift-Metal bar at the
bottom of the screen) and the device will no longer detect the target
until the detector is retuned. In addition, the depth of the detector will
also decrease.
IMPORTANT! In non-motion modes, ground balancing is very important
for a deeper and more stable detection. It is recommended that you
should follow the ground balance window and re-ground balance your
device based on instant ground balance changes.
Basic
This mode is designed for beginners. It does not require much
adjustment and can be used by adjusting the sensitivity setting only.
In Basic mode, the target ID range is 00-99. 00-40 are ferrous metals
and 41-99 are non-ferrous metals. In this mode, ferrous metals with ID
numbers between 0 and 40 are discriminated out by factory default.
Upon target detection in Basic mode, the bar at the bottom of the
screen will fill up to the right, in the METAL direction in proportion to
the strength of the signal.
In Basic mode, the device will generate the same audio tone for all
targets but it will display the target ID on screen. At the same time,
the target ID will be shown on the color ID scale at the top with the
cursor.
