The XP DEUS Metal Detector Handbook by Andy Sabisch — Original DEUS

Get more performance from your original XP DEUS with this comprehensive handbook by respected metal-detecting author and field tester Andy Sabisch.

The XP DEUS Handbook goes beyond the standard owner’s manual by explaining what the detector’s controls do, how different settings interact, and how to adjust the machine for a wide range of targets and ground conditions. It combines detailed operating information with field-tested settings, techniques, and advice from experienced DEUS users around the world and members of the XP team.

Important Compatibility Notice

This handbook covers the original XP DEUS metal detector. It does not cover the XP DEUS II.

Some general detecting concepts may also apply to the DEUS II, but its controls, programs, features, frequencies, coils, and operating platform are different. Customers who own a DEUS II should purchase a handbook written specifically for the XP DEUS II.

This revised edition includes information covering Version 5.X software for the original DEUS.
