The Cortes combines analog control units with the latest generation of digital signal processing. The Cortes user is spared the lengthy reading of operating instructions to discover the secrets of operation as well as complex programming. Despite the many setting options, the Cortes remains aneasy-to-use detector with intuitive operation and excellent metal discrimination. Typical Tesoro.

Would you like more metal discrimination?

The clear and functional display provides the searcher with a wealth of information to identify the located object more precisely. On the upper part of the display, objects are roughly divided into four categories, e.g. Iron or Foil (iron or small pieces of silver paper) or Silver Coin (silver coin). This brief information is shown in more detail in the lower area of the display using two further display techniques.

A 9-stage bar display differentiates between the conductivity of the metal from left to right on the display. It shows the information of the last swing. The Cortes measures the maximum deflection of the signal and converts it as a conductance value, positioned on the right-hand side of the display, into the typical ferrous, non-ferrous and precious metal-specific conductance value in numbers from 0 to 95.

The wide 9-step segment display has the advantage of spreading the readings from minimum (iron) to maximum (e.g. silver or solid bronze objects). This draws attention to the middle display values such as valuable gold rings, nickel jewelry and allows better detection of worthless scrap such as pull tabs from aluminum cans and crown corks etc.
