XP DEUS II PROGRAM OMRELIC

The RELIC program in the new XP DEUS II detector is a kind of Holy Grail because it works on a completely different principle than other programs. It is closer to the Gold Field version, which is a typical program for searching for gold nuggets, also known as the ORX model. The multi-frequency characteristics do the job, especially in iron. The frequency oscillates around 24 kHz, which is optimal even on the more difficult ground and there is no great loss of depth.

IAR discrimination works by size rejection of the iron signal, but you can read about it elsewhere on my blog or watch a video on my Youtube channel. I recommend the XP DEUS II playlist for dummies!

So how do you properly set up the RELIC program to go really deep? We know it’s the deepest program next to DEEP HC, but how to squeeze more out of it? In the beginning, you choose the REACTIVITY responsible for the separation of objects. For me, the starting point is 1.5. For more cluttered places, I recommend 2 or even 3. A higher value means less performance when it comes to depth, but better separate objects. Here you have to adjust everything to the place and quantity – the intensity of the signals. Along the way, we set the sensitivity to the level of stable operation, we scan the channels so that the device automatically selects the most stable operating range.

The volume of the iron, the lead signal is already a personal preference, as is the amplification of weak signals. It is worth leaving the factory settings as the default. The leading signal THRESHOLD we need to raise a bit (software version 0.71).

We come to the most important thing – IAR discrimination. Here I set a maximum value of 3 to avoid losing low and fine gold guides, above this value, we risk more. A higher parameter gives less low signals and guarantees more stable operation. By entering the EXPERT tab, we can set NOTCH. In this case, it is a kind of audio discrimination that does not affect the performance of the detector, but unfortunately, very deep signals can give a value of 00 on the display. Fortunately, we will only lose the audio and the values are still displayed. It is important because 00 is a value close to the reading of the soil and also ceramics, which is a testimony of human presence in a given area.

You can always use NOTCH, it increases the comfort of work and translates into results. If the signals are bothering you, you can try to set the range from 00-06. You will not be overloaded with signals from rusty iron and over-response of the soil. There is always a risk of losing items masked next to this value, deep without ID as I wrote above. It is worth choosing settings for a given scenario or a search strategy you have developed in a given place.

XP DEUS I and DEUS II which is better?

The flood of films about the advantage of DEUS I over DEUS II amused me a hundred times. Customers don’t know what to do… wait or buy?! In addition, there are also software updates, which cause a flood of extreme comments about the version that works and which does not. Complete confusion and chaos.

The first spline is a proven generation of metal detectors, we know all their advantages and disadvantages in everyday use. Model II is a great unknown, it would seem because multi-frequency technology is present in this model for the first time! Not completely. We have a MONO program where we can use DEUS II like its predecessor by selecting only single operating frequencies. We get two in one.

The new god of detectors works really well, and subsequent bugs are gradually corrected. This is not only the case for the French company XP, the competition is struggling with similar problems. Even domestic producers have found out that changing the software can be the key to success or total failure. The question is how much the hardware will allow us – i.e. the tripe of the detector. How good they are to meet the developer challenge.

For me, one thing is certain, DEUS I is by no means a thing of the past, but on the secondary market. The question is when XP will withdraw it from production and become an icon of sales portals like the old Whites models. We’ll see, meanwhile, it’s worth considering buying this detector, unfortunately, the price is an obstacle, over PLN 7,599 gross is an amount unavailable for many in Polish realities, even in the sphere of dreams.

So what does the new technology give and what does it change for the statistical Seeker? It’s simple, the device works more stably, is deeper, and in the case of a salty sea beach and highly mineralized clay, it allows you to reach deeper. For a lot of iron, hardware from France shines. Low and high conductors are signaled similarly confidently and unambiguously, which cannot be said about devices operating at one operating frequency. The above advantages will be useful in certain conditions and not everyone needs it, most users will be satisfied with much cheaper equipment, but there is one thing, but … Ergonomics and weight are unbeatable, the lack of cables also makes life easier, although DEUS II, like its predecessor, requires an experienced operator, or a lot of self-denial in learning the device.

If the assumptions described above are not met, it is worth getting interested in something simpler, because some functions require full understanding and, what is worse, they are permanently interconnected, which complicates the matter even more. Yes, it all takes time and patience, but it will certainly pay off in the future when others will have to give up.

Nokta Makro The Legend vs XP DEUS II

How hard it is to compare currently produced detectors does not need to convince anyone. Price is no longer the only exponent.

The competition among manufacturers has come full circle, and the data alone will be of little use for a simple reason, which is the device software. To make matters worse, the popular software update can mess up a lot and turn an average detector into a wolf in sheep’s clothing. Unfortunately, it also works the other way around.

Nokta Makro The Legend and XP DEUS II are connected only by multi-frequency technology, all the rest is diametrically different, maybe apart from the quality of workmanship, in which the Turkish manufacturer tries to catch up with the competition and he does it really very well. The wireless Frenchman is a class by itself and no one has beaten the 960-gram weight of the device so far. In heavy terrain, such parameters speak with each subsequent swipe, and the modular design allows you to change the configuration.

There will be those who will complain that you can’t buy traditional batteries and everything has to be charged separately. This has never happened to me – a power outage. Fortunately, the multitude of modules allows you to resign from the discharged RC panel and use headphones in its place … there are some emergency options.

Let’s get down to earth. The Legend is also solidly built and won’t let you down in the field. It’s not XP’s build quality, but the price is half the God of Detectors. a lot? That’s possible. The Legend convinces with its ease of use and very strong integration with the user. After a while we understand everything, and quiet and stable work is a real pleasure. Audio, yes, audio finally exists and is doing well, especially since we can change a lot. It’s not a symphony from DEUSA II, but it’s closer than farther. The clear detector does the job as it should and that speaks to me. Symbiosis and pleasure. DEUS II is a much more difficult device or is it worse? No. It just requires much more time to master and understand the dependencies of the settings. When will it pay off? In very difficult and specific conditions such as a very large amount of iron. In such a place, XP shines and a title that was not given to it by chance. A large number of settings allow you to adjust the equipment to yourself and the environment. This is a big advantage, but also something that requires a lot of constipation and time. As you can see on social media, many have given up and are putting our Detector God up for sale.

So how to choose? Smart, and so serious? For 90% of Nokta Makro The Legend is enough and will make us really happy. On the same littered meadow, I was better with the Turk than with the French, but I know that it was a medium difficult place, and I would take XP to the rubble of the old inn. DEUS II is a great solution when someone needs lightweight equipment due to injuries or hard-to-reach terrain. It is also a tool to work in a large garbage can and in a huge amount of iron, which makes other devices simply ineffective.

Depth? Both detectors have enough of it. All in the video below. Remember to subscribe!
