The ferrous limits on the Minelab Manticore are a tool which helps you discriminate iron.
Ferrous limits ARE NOT DISCRIMINATION they are what the detector Classifies as IRON.
If you have no need to use the ferrous limits then you should lower both the upper and lower limits to increase performance of the manticore.
Mainly when metal detecting on fields in the uk, the lower ferrous limits will not be needed but usually the upper limits will be needed and can either be used as a solid line or as we look at here customising to suit the field on which we are detecting.
when you start detecting watch the manticore 2D screen and look at the information that is being shown on the screen

here you can see that an iron signal is leeking out of the upper ferrous limit and that also in the lower limit there is also a target.
we can adjust the ferrous limits to suit what we need to eliminate where the iron is creeping out out the upper ferrous limit.

Custom ferrous limits can be saved on the manticore so you can build up a collection of customised ferrous limits for where you detect
