shopkins1994 Posted February 21, 2022 Share Posted February 21, 2022 Hi Everyone. I posted the following video on a response to a different post, but I thought I would post it here for you incase you aren't reading that thread. This is a video explaining how to go the deepest depth possible with the Deus 2 and also how to increase the Deus 2's ability to process complex signals such as coins on edge. Happy swinging! 5 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
abenson Posted February 21, 2022 Share Posted February 21, 2022 Interesting video. But you give the settings that will work in optimal ground conditions. Which are no trash and no mineralization. Some people will need to use some if these filters to make the Deus 2 work for their sites. Best to adjust settings individually based on site conditions. 7 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Everyone always said AM went deeper, and this explains why. Thanks for this. It is the “Complex Ability” part that interests me most. Following this logic, then whether one wished to hunt deep or not, an advantage given by processing power is retained. Would that be correct? For example, if one really wished to hunt shallow but was mostly concerned with unmasking ability in aluminum and iron trash, would the advantage be lost by the presence of undesired targets using your ticks? If not, then even if it is slower one could look at TID display to evaluate every signal and perhaps increase finds? Or maybe do a better job of evaluating and rejecting trash? In very heavy trash then, does using the filters makes more sense or would the complex ability allow for unmasking that would make it worth the loss of ground coverage by using time to visually evaluate every signal? Do these questions even make sense in this context or am I reading too much into what that video says? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

In that case you should start with everything off and only add the bare minimum. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Now bear in mind that the Deus 2 will not detect a Reale placed over an anvil simply by turning things off. The moral of the story is that everything you turn on may hurt you and you should only turn things on that help you and the bare minimum at that. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Frankly, after having used Equinox and Deus for several years under all kinds of detecting situations (Andy (abenson) has too, the poster to whom you directed your reply) it's a little more nuanced than that. But that's one way to approach it starting out if you have little experience on what the filters do and how they affect the received target signal. As far as the D2 is concerned, Andy and I have been trading notes and through trial and error testing and actual field use, find the default settings provided by XP are pretty good at optimizing the detector for the anticipated use situations as described in the various mode descriptions in the manual and only minor tweaks are needed, but a lot more swing time and varying situations are needed to validate that initial perception. 4 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Sandheron Posted February 21, 2022 Share Posted February 21, 2022 They should add a stock program that starts wide open then you can add filters as required. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
martygene Posted February 21, 2022 Share Posted February 21, 2022 have a video of you using these settings? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

You would need a different one for every FMF profile. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
