Problems with Deus

[Boltonjohn]

Have had Deus for a couple of months and am really not getting on with it. Using factory presets 2 and 3 I get an enormous amount of chatter - so much that any signal that is not a really solid gets lost in the noise. Have tried ground balancing using pumping and it fails completely on any field that is not like a billiard table. Settled plough, 15 attempts on different parts of the field with a fail every time. Pasture wth three inches of grass, fail every time. Field which was seeded and rolled three days ago and is just about as flat as a field can be, no problem. None of these fields are iron Infested and turn out mineralisation readings in the seventies.
Much more worrying than that was a faint signal with a positive meter reading from firm, reasonably level plough which turned out to be a sestertius at around four inches. I would have expected a solid signal at double that depth for such a large coin.
So, enormous amount of false signals at factory settings, depth terrible and refusing to ground balance on anything but a billiard table.
Any ideas?

Try to use ground balance on tracking , make sure that when you switch the machine on that it is at waist height , try Deus fast and turn the sensitivity down until the chatter stops , lower sensitivity will not affect depth, i have turned mine down as low as 80 on some fields and still found coins at 8 inches and beyond. Where do you have a meter that tells you that mineralisation is in the 70s the mineralisation bar has no numbers so i assume you are sectioning the bar to come to that number or you are confusing the ground balance with mineralisation bar
some signal are not loud and proud but sometimes they turn out to be the best as for your Roman coin it may have been on its side ? i have found a few Roman coins and the signal is crap , i have popped out some Saxon brooches and the signal is not fantastic like you would expect and the reading is only around 67 so very low for a Bronze item . Stick with it try these ideas and see how you get on Also please let me know how you come to get a number for mineralization do try ground balance tracking don't bother to pump the machine if you want to use manual ground balance you will soon see what it needs to be set at after you have walked a few feet .Hope this helps

come on im still waiting to know how you get a reading of mineralization in the 70s i think you are reading the ground balance instead of the mineralization meter if it chatters turn down the sensitivity until the chatter stops Simples
