1. Introduction and System Overview
The XP Deus is a fully wireless metal detector system designed for advanced metal detecting. This bundle includes the Deus remote control, an 11-inch X35 search coil, WSAUDIO wireless headphones, and an MI-6 pinpointer. The system utilizes a patented architecture where the search coil, remote control, and headphones communicate wirelessly via a fast digital radio signal. This design ensures a lightweight and ergonomic experience, allowing for quick assembly and disassembly with its S-Telescopic stem.
The Deus system offers a wide range of frequencies from 4 to 80 kHz, providing versatility for various detecting conditions and target types. The integrated digital processor in the search coil processes signals directly at the source, enhancing detection quality and speed.
2. Setup and Assembly
2.1 Assembling the S-Telescopic Stem
- Extend the S-Telescopic stem to your desired operating length. Ensure all locking mechanisms are securely fastened.
- Attach the 11-inch X35 search coil to the lower stem using the provided hardware. Tighten firmly but do not overtighten.
- Mount the Deus remote control to the handle of the S-Telescopic stem.
2.2 Initial Charging
Before first use, fully charge all components:
- Deus Remote Control: Connect the charging cable to the remote control and a USB power source.
- WSAUDIO Headphones: Connect the charging cable to the headphone module and a USB power source.
- MI-6 Pinpointer: Connect the charging cable to the pinpointer and a USB power source.
- X35 Search Coil: The coil charges via a dedicated clip-on cable connected to the remote control or a USB power source.
All components use Lithium Ion batteries and require approximately 3-4 hours for a full charge.
2.3 Pairing Components
The Deus remote control, WSAUDIO headphones, and MI-6 pinpointer are designed for seamless wireless communication. Typically, they are pre-paired. If re-pairing is necessary:
- Remote Control & Coil: Power on the remote control and the coil. The remote should automatically detect and connect to the coil. If not, navigate to the 'Coil' menu on the remote and select 'Pair'.
- WSAUDIO Headphones: Power on the headphones. On the Deus remote, go to the 'Audio' menu and select 'WS Audio'. Choose 'Pair' and follow the on-screen prompts.
- MI-6 Pinpointer: Power on the MI-6. On the Deus remote, go to the 'Pinpointer' menu and select 'Pair MI-6'. The pinpointer's signal will be transmitted wirelessly to your detector and headphones.
3. Operating Instructions
3.1 Deus Remote Control
The remote control is the central interface for the Deus system. It features a clear display and intuitive button layout for accessing various settings and programs.
- Power On/Off: Press and hold the power button (usually bottom left) to turn the unit on or off.
- Navigation: Use the arrow buttons to navigate through menus and adjust settings. The 'Option' button typically accesses sub-menus.
- Programs: The Deus comes with 18 pre-set programs, including 10 factory quick-start options and 8 customizable programs. Select a program suitable for your detecting environment (e.g., Coin, Gold, Beach).
- Frequency Selection: With the X35 coil, you can choose from 35 frequencies ranging from 3.7 to 27.7 kHz. Access this setting through the coil menu to optimize for different targets and ground conditions.
- Discrimination: Adjust the discrimination level to filter out unwanted ferrous targets. Higher discrimination settings will ignore more iron.
- Sensitivity: Control the detector's sensitivity to maximize detection depth while minimizing false signals.
3.2 WSAUDIO Wireless Headphones
The WSAUDIO headphones provide clear audio feedback from the detector without the need for cables. They are weatherproof, foldable, and lightweight.
- Power On/Off: Press and hold the power button on the headphone module.
- Volume Control: Adjust the audio volume directly using the buttons on the headphone module.
- Detachable Module: The WSA module can be separated from the headphone frame, allowing for replacement of the frame or connection of a wired headset (optional).
3.3 MI-6 Pinpointer
The MI-6 pinpointer integrates wirelessly with your Deus detector, providing precise target localization.
- Power On/Off: Press and hold the button on the MI-6.
- Sensitivity Adjustment: The MI-6 offers 50 levels of sensitivity. When wirelessly linked to the Deus, you can adjust its sensitivity directly from the detector's remote control.
- Detection: The MI-6 provides 360-degree detection, an integrated LED light for low-light conditions, and offers both loudspeaker and vibration feedback. It has 2 audio modes (pitch or pulse) to help locate small and hard-to-find targets.
- Waterproof: The MI-6 is waterproof up to 20 feet, making it suitable for underwater use.
4. Maintenance
4.1 Cleaning
- After each use, especially in sandy or muddy conditions, wipe down the search coil, stem, and remote control with a damp cloth.
- Ensure no dirt or debris accumulates around the coil cable connection points.
- The WSAUDIO headphones are weatherproof; however, avoid submerging them. Clean with a soft, dry cloth.
- The MI-6 pinpointer is waterproof; rinse it with fresh water after use in saltwater or muddy environments.
4.2 Battery Care and Storage
- All components use Lithium Ion batteries. For optimal battery life, avoid fully discharging them regularly.
- When storing the detector for extended periods, ensure all components are fully charged to prevent deep discharge, which can damage the batteries.
- Store the detector in a cool, dry place, away from direct sunlight and extreme temperatures.
- To conserve battery life during transport or storage, ensure all components (remote, headphones, pinpointer, and coil) are properly powered off. Some users have reported battery drain if components are not fully shut down.
5. Troubleshooting
This section addresses common issues you might encounter with your XP Deus system.
| Problem | Possible Cause | Solution |
|---|---|---|
| Headphones not connecting to remote. | Not paired, out of range, low battery. | Ensure headphones are charged and powered on. Re-attempt pairing via the remote control's 'Audio' menu. Move headphones closer to the remote. |
| Pinpointer not connecting to remote. | Not paired, out of range, low battery. | Ensure MI-6 is charged and powered on. Re-attempt pairing via the remote control's 'Pinpointer' menu. |
| System components draining battery quickly. | Components not fully powered off. | Ensure all components (remote, headphones, pinpointer, and coil) are completely powered off when not in use or during transport. Check the user manual for specific power-off procedures for each component. |
| False signals or unstable operation. | High sensitivity, electromagnetic interference, ground mineralization. | Reduce sensitivity. Perform a ground balance. Move away from power lines or other electronic devices. |
| No detection or weak signals. | Low sensitivity, incorrect program, coil not connected. | Increase sensitivity. Select an appropriate program for target type. Check coil connection to the stem and ensure it's powered on. |
