XP Release v1.0 Update For Deus II/WS6 Master
It has been a very long time coming but XP has finally released an update for the Deus II.
The company has also made it easier for users to apply this and further updates via a new browser-based platform compatible with PC and MAC.
All you need to do is go to the XP website, create your account and update your DEUS II to Version 1.0.
What’s New:
FULL TONES (DISCRI > EXPERT)
DISCRIMINATION=TONE BREAK
Values below the discrimination level, such as the ground and iron, are now audible without having to lower the discrimination to -6.4. The discrimination setting acts as a “tone break,” and the Iron Volume setting adjusts the volume of ground and iron below the discrimination level.
OFFSET-FT (FULLTONES > EXPERT)
Shifts the audio frequency to the high tone of the first targets with a signature just above the Discrimination level, in order to easily differentiate them audibly from iron:
0=disabled OFFSET.
5=default setting allowing a first level of offset to the high tone of the first non-ferrous targets.
10=more pronounced offset.
40 (max) = all targets above the discrimination level will produce the same high-pitched sound.
Full Tones -TONE VOLUME (FULLTONES > EXPERT)
Configures the tone breaks and volume levels of 5 conductivity ranges of the Full Tones in order to prioritize certain target ranges.
TONE VOLUME (MENU > DISCRI > EXPERT > TONES > EXPERT)
Adjusts the individual volume of each tone on 11 levels to attenuate certain target ranges and prioritize others.
FREQUENCY MAX (MENU > FREQ MAX)
Limits the maximum high frequency used in the multifrequency spectrum FMF to 40kHz, 24kHz or 14kHz for each program.
Reducing the Max Frequency improves ground stability and iron discrimination.
This also reduces sensitivity to weak conductors (T.ID 25-50) and the ability to accept coins mixed with nails or heavily mineralized soil.
For example, program 1 GENERAL coupled with a Max Frequency of 14khz (4-14khz spectrum) is more suitable for locating high conductive targets (silver coins) through aluminum foil, compared to the default band up to 40khz.
Note: The frequency shift and auto frequency scan have been moved to the Max Frequency sub-menu.
AUDIO FILTER (OPTION > AUDIO)
Cleans up the audio and sounds smoother, less instability, particularly at depth, choosing the correct Audio Filter for your search area can gain a few extra centimeters of performance.
On clean beaches or clean open ground, higher levels from 2 to 5 will be interesting.
In polluted iron environments, lower levels from 0 to 2 will retain enough nuances in the iron feedback to better recognize Ferrous and Non-Ferrous targets.
At 0, this audio filter is disabled.
HI-SQUARE AUDIO TYPE (OPTION > AUDIO > AUDIO TYPE)
This new audio type has a richer and clearer harmonic content than the SQUARE Audio Type and can very often help identify deep quiet targets.
In Pitch mode, strong targets close to the coil will be less sharp and softened compared to SQUARE, in order to better identify deep targets without saturating your hearing with close and strong signals.
FASTER T.ID
The target ID (T.ID) display now updates faster, so that the ID of a ferrous target does not linger on a non-ferrous target. Also, adjust the FE T.ID setting to OFF to favor the display of non-ferrous targets.
FE T.ID (OPTION > CONFIG > ON/OFF)
FE T.ID = ON: Displays the ID of ferrous targets.
FE T.ID = OFF: Will not display the ID of ferrous targets but only targets with an ID value higher than the discrimination setting (even if you keep the Iron Volume).
In iron-polluted environments, set FE T.ID to OFF to focus on the display of non-ferrous targets.
SILENCER (DISCRI > EXPERT)
Now more effective and staggered with 8 levels from 0 to 7.
With the silencer set to levels 2-3, difficult ferrous targets displaying a high ID and generating high-pitched tones will be better eliminated.
If you want to further improve the discrimination of ferrous targets, consider:
– Increasing the Silencer to 3, 4, 5…
– Increasing the discrimination level to 8-10.
– Use the B.caps reject (rejecting ferrous and large iron capsules)
– Reducing the Max Frequency to 24 or 14kHz
OTHER
Program 1-GENERAL
Program 1-General now uses 2 tones and the Big T.ID display mode as default. Its reactivity is slightly reduced from 2.5 to 2 to offer you more performance in general use on less polluted ground.
Multi Notch and Ground menu is now available on the WS6
The Multi-Notch as well as the Ground menu with its all-metal mode are now present on the WS6 Master.
