With XP's radio link, you can effortlessly connect the MI-6 to your XP Deus 2, Deus, or ORX metal detector, taking your metal detecting experience to new heights. An anti-interference suppression system between the MI-6 and the DEUS/ORX means that the Deus switches into standby mode when the MI-6 is activated and then comes back on when the MI-6 is switched off. The audio signal from the pin pointer is transmitted directly to the DEUS remote control and headphones. X with the unpaired probe is operated on the 12 kHz frequency - the same as the operating frequency of the MI-6 and MI-4 probes, and reacts to the pinpointer with a loud, oscillating sound.

First, I did not want to deal with the pairing and connectivity issues which were caused by a few bugs in the firmware versions v4. None of the complainers can figure out what this sound is all about, and the instruction manual does not say anything about it. Choosing LP will give you the best service, products and advice you need for all your metal detecting endeavours! We design and manufacture metal detecting accessories and supply detectors and gear you can count on.The concept of putting the coil into standby when the pointer is on is brilliant, but it sadly just doesn't work perfectly.

Well, I have been using ONE 9v battery with my Garrett Pro-Pointer for TWO seasons and totally happy with it! An anti -Interference system between the MI-6 and the DEUS means that the Deus switches into standby mode when MI-6 is activated and then comes back to on when the MI-6 is switched off.

This causes a big nuisance for a user because neither the MI-4 nor the unpaired MI-6 has neither a Low Battery indicator nor a Low Battery alarm, and, when the battery dies, the probe stops working without warning.

However, the experienced detectorists say that if the Deus sees the target, and the pinpointer does not, it is better to dig a deeper hole instead of setting the pinpointer at maximum Sensitivity level. I like having a rechargeable battery, although it has a unique plug, the end cap needs to be removed to recharge, and is VERY hard to unthread sometimes. What we love: "Great quality, great audio, waterproof to 6 meters packed with lots of features, designed for use with the XP DEUS, AND DEUS II! Because I had developed certain sensorimotor memory in my hand muscles after using the Garrett pinpointer for a long while, I am used to quickly press the pinpointer power button to turn it off without conscious control.g. control over vibrate, flashlight and volume settings from the RC - easy to do, just they don't seem to have thought about it (and who needs a PP with multiple 'programs' and/or 50 sensitivity levels)! I think that the XP Metal Detectors should quickly address all firmware and design issues with their probes, otherwise the competitors will eclipse the XP Metal Detectors soon, if this is not already happening. Since then, Garrett has released a few subsequent, modified versions of the Pro-Pointer, all of which have become successful and reflected the Garrett adherence to the highest standards in design ergonomics, body build quality and performance. You can change your choices at any time by visiting Cookie preferences, as described in the Cookie notice. the pinpointer is not radio-linked to the Deus, a user will experience a lot of annoying interference audio when the MI6, or MI-4, is in close proximity to the Deus.
