What is the latest on the V4 issues?
March 22, 2017 09:13PM
I had a hunt this past weekend so I did not do the update before I left because I wanted to use my current programs. I am now glad I did not. I have heard horror stories of coils and headphones "Bricking" and needing to be returned to France for reprogramming. Seems to also be many smaller issues.
I am now hearing all is good and the latest update will work fine and resolve all current issues. The question is where do I get the latest download? There are a dozen of them posted on forums but which is the latest? Is XP Americas download the latest one?
I have 2 remotes, 3 coils and both the WS5 and WS4 headphones. I am hearing people say to turn off the first set of headphones before you update the second set. I am also being told to just update 1 remote, the 3 coils and one pair of headphones and then separately update the other remote and other pair of headphones.
I am really reluctant to do this update until I am sure that it will be successful on all my pieces. Any advice from Deus users is greatly appreciated.

It's been running fine for me for a couple of days.
Wiped everything clean and did the update again Monday night with no issues and no blips.
Get the download at the XP site to be safe.

I was honored to do an evaluation of the new HF coil and Vs 4. The software had zero glitches for me but there were some changes and add-ons that I suggested. Personally, I like this new
version much better than 3.2. Richard / Backwoods Detectors
