- Ok so here it is....a video on how to setup and use my Equinox 800 Coin & Relics settings!
These are the only settings I ever use for the Equinox 800 whilst metal detecting over old and new sites looking for lost treasures. With many other metal detectorists using them over the years loving them aswell.
Please watch carefully as we work through together and input these new settings into your Equinox 800 also.
There is also plenty of other informative metal detecting videos on my channel to view and enjoy.

though I had some problem with sea water It also ua-cam.com/users/postUgkxa-FNYUOM93a388gi9a4brtSCEVmrHgJH land for finding any things very easily. (thought it would work as normal due to it being water proof within certain parts of the detector), on dry land and sand worked well. My first one, so still have lots to learn
Bro, i followed your settings, went out and found 5 coins in 45 mins. One was a 1904 indian head penny. Awesome tutorial.
@Johny and Johny Jr man that is so bloody awesome to hear that these settings helped. They are pretty simple to set up and used with great success by detectorists all around the world now! I love sharing🙂
Best of luck and happy digging for future mate🤝⛏️👍
@@DigItDetectingMaria here from the UK
I'm going to try your settings this weekend 👍
Yep spot on. Ya never know rubbish target could be a trigram yep I found one nearly walked away... make sure ya dig it all WHY BECAUSE ALL HOLES MATTER 😂.
This was the best video on Equinox settings out there. Thank you for taking the time to demonstrate the basic and advanced settings. I will be following the advice you offer. I have a question, here in the U.S when I go hunt a site looking mostly for coins on 1900 sites I have passed up many good back and fourth clear signals coming in at 1 -10 and ofc since it doesn’t fall in my coin range I have passed on. Would you recommend from here forward to dig those lower good sounding targets especially when time is of the essence??? Thank you very much.
Thanks so much @princeali1786 I am so glad you enjoyed watching and found my video to be helpful🙂
The Equinox is a great all round machine and so easy to learn and use.
In most of my videos when hunting the old house sites, you will notice that I generally only dig out the higher numbers from 18-40 especially when time limited.
This will give me a great idea of what targets are coming out of the ground though and how to understand that site best. Then later when I have more time, I will return to dig out all the lower numbers also. (Ranging from 1 through to 40)
Best of luck hunting and I really hope this all helps. Be sure to check out some of my other videos hunting at the old house sites. There you will find plenty more tips and tricks for future im sure.
Happy Hunting and enjoy🙂⛏
hello. is it possible to communicate with you through your contacts? thank you🙏
Hi there @reza sharifi I am available to msg or contact through the Dig It Detecting Facebook Page. I hope that helps mate👍
Well Thank You Luke, I have had the 800 for 18 months and it’s been ok, but I dialed in your settings and just scored 5 coins on the beach in an hour, including a 1960 half penny. That’s my best outing yet, thanks legend. 👍👍
very good video , but you did not say how to save the setting , or are they saved when you turn the machine off ??
Really glad you enjoyed watching @Peter Evans also once any settings are changed on the Equinox 800 they will automatically remain that way during the switch off and on process. No need to worry about saving. Happy hunting👍
Hello, I just love your tutorial and I added it my Minelab 800. I live in Hawaii where there are tons of HOT ROCKS!! Is there anything that I should change to make it run smoother? It's because these rocks give out a lot of falsing because so mineralized. Any help would help!! Aloha. :)
G'day, happy Australian
I have the best couple of hours coin hunting using your settings I discovered more and what I to find I thought I was digging five cents to my surprise it was silver actually turned out to be one sixpence and a Three pence going by using the settings and listening to the high sounds I'd like to thank you very much your settings were nicely thank you Ray
Hi there @Ray Dovey thanks so much mate and that is awesome to hear, congratulations!
Those Equinox 800 settings certainly help make those coins and tones stand out alot clearer when hunting.
Best of luck out there detecting and I hope you have plenty more success for future👍⛏
I have been running my Equinox 800 on these settings for a year now and everything i have found is pretty much thanks to luke and because of him sharing his settings..⛏😊 Thanks again luke and good luck out there hunting everyone.👋⛏⛏😊🇭🇲
Thankyou so much Matty and so happy to help you mate. You have had some amazing finds to, very nice work👌
Happy hunting and best of luck for future digs👍⛏
Where are you from if you don't mind my asking I was wondering if these settings would be good for US coins don't want to hinder myself
Wow 😳, Holly cow 🐄, TALK about a video, watching you program your Minelab 800 is like setting a clock's time with hand's on the clock,it look's ALOT EASIER than programming the Garrett AT MAX which can be a nightmare,atleast for me.Now I know performance is where it's at and I don't know how good the performance of the Minelab is but as far as setting up the Metal detector, I'd say the Minelab 800 is the way to go, I seem to understand the directions alot more better than watching the Garrett AT MAX Video Vol 2.Now I'm thinking about getting a Minelab 800, don't think much of the cutsy audio it's putting out, I wounder if the audio can be changed? Also does Minelab have WATERPROOF HEADPHONES FOR THE 800 METAL DETECTOR ?
I would like to join in on this video butttttt my 800 crapped out a few weeks ago, sent it in to be repaired (under full warranty) still not a word. Called them and there is only ONE GUY doing repairs and HE IS OFF THAT DAY... WHAT. SHOCKED.........
Hello from Finland. These are so awesome instructions for the 800 but do you know how these apply for the Minelab Equinox 600 or if you know where i can get them? I just got my Minelab Equinox 600 and I'm a liitle bit in need of guidance. 😊👍
Just wanted to let you know, today was my first day using the Equinox 800. I decided to use the settings you shared here. I was surprised at how stable this machine is and I was able to pull 5 civil war bullets out of a very hard hit area. My daughter was using my old MXT and it wouldn't even pick them up! Great settings!
Question...do I have to factory reset and put in these settings after every time out?
You didn’t accept the volume level for t5 , you just went back to main menus without pressing the accept button for volume of 20 .... did that save ?
Your right Matti Hahn in the video the T5 setting I did not press the Accept button on, however after adjusting it still did save with the T5 20 setting.
Now I made the settings and went to the detection. I'm back with a feedback. Thanks for the help!
Kia Ora bro' wow' wow' thank you for this settings, I never found so many gold coins $2-$1 before till now, this settings will be permanently on my nox 800 for coin shooting, thanks again, take care out there and a happy hunting
That is amazing to hear @Rima senior sadaraka, I am so happy my settings have helped boost those finds when out detecting. They certainly make those $1 & $2 coins sing out nice and loud👌
Thanks so much for the feedback and happy hunting mate👍⛏
late to the party....great vid and tips thank you for sharing! I wanted to immediately set my settings on my nox 600 only to realize the audio pitch and break can only be adjusted for ferrous metals. what would you recommend in this case (besides buying the 800 =) )
I'm pretty happy with my settings but thought I'd watch for the hell of it. Turns out my settings are very similar lol. I do some things differently. I regularly change recovery speed depending on site and trash conditions. I also never discriminate and listen to all sounds. This helps me hear if the machine is struggling against emi because I've found that bad emi can throw off the reading by a few numbers and make good targets sound sketchy.
Thanks for sharing Luke.
Nice work @DetectingCanberra using the higher recovery speed and a lower iron bias definitely helps make those targets stand out alot clearer on the nox!
Thanks for watching mate👍
Best of luck out there and happy hunting⛏
Hi Luke, just want to say Thank you thank you thank you, I was digging a couple of old homes that are going to be demolished and I was getting a few pre decimal coins, I thought I had cleaned them out, but when I used your guide to setting the NOX I returned to the houses and only spent about half an hour and I dug up two gold coins ($2.) and four more pennies, I was absolutely blown away and will be returning to the houses to complete a final sweep. Once again Luke thank you very much, and I enjoy your UA-cam site keep up the great work. Dudley Lynch.
.
Hi there @dudley lynch thanks so much for your comment and feedback mate, I am so glad to hear that you are finding my Equinox 800 settings helpful when hunting the old house sites!
Hopefully you can find and save plenty more nice coins and relics before they start the rebuild process👍
Thanks heaps again mate, happy hunting out there👍⛏️
Hi Luke (again) I couldn’t see any information on Threshold Pitch in your Video, is that because it’s down to the individual?
Hey could you please do a tutorial on how to set it up just for gold thank you very much appreciate it
Not a worry at all Michela, I will be sure to do some testing next time out in the goldfields and see what works best for the mineralisation in ground🙂
Setup? Im about to buy one.. didnt know you had to set them up!!?
There is no need to change anything at all when purchasing an Equinox 800 @Jody these are just extra settings that have been created to help work the very trashy sites for the coins and relics etc. Best of luck👍⛏️
@@DigItDetecting oh gotcha! Once I get it here I'll check back on this video.. thanks man!
I set it up like you did and wow tyvm ,now my deus 2 will be here today lol any XP DEUS 2 SHOOTING PROGRAMS?
That is great to hear @MAINELY DIRT FISHIN awesome to know that you are enjoying my settings mate. I unfortunately haven't ever owned a Deus 2, so no settings just yet for that one sorry mate.
I wish you the best of luck for future hunting, cheers mate👍⛏️
My equinox(800) doesn't display the control functions, did I buy a fake one?
Just bought a equinox 800 today and yeah the instructions on using this device are rubbish how do people learn all the different settings and every video l have watched today everyone says pretty simple settings l actually don't find this simple ??? Don't understand it at all
Hi I have just purchased a nox 800, But i followed your video there, but what confuses me is that once you had put all the settings in. You went to another part of setting the settings to anything above 18 but why did you get us to set this at -9
Seen your settings on silver so gave them a try.
Wow unbelievable these settings, won't be changing these settings ever, was out last weekend and found loads on coins, then 2 silvers jumped out, silver sixpence bullhead and George 5th one florin.
Well impressed bro❤
@Darren Newbury this was so bloody awesome to read mate and exactly what I'm all about. If I can help others out there have better success then it's all worth the time and effort to shoot these videos👌 Thanks heaps bro🤝
Keep smashing those coins and relics mate, I'm sure you will be hitting on lots more targets at every site you hunt now👌⛏️
I was using Jason Jones silver settings which my mate loves and finds loads more than me, until I put your settings in and tryed them, couldn't believe it when I was out the other day I was finding more than him, plus with your settings it goes deep aswell..
So seen your other settings on the UA-cam so decided to put both in my machine, so this Sunday Il be using both your settings so il let you no the outcome bro, keep up the videos bro there awasone
I just found out UA-cam had wiped you from my subscribed list mate.
I’ve had my equinox 800 for 2 years and your settings made good sense so I tried them and I’m amazed how good your setup is. I went over to a spot that a friend pulled 3 silver dimes out in the past and neither of us could hear anything else but iron, using your setup I pulled another Mercury dime and a barber quarter, we were absolutely shocked and now I’m going over spots I’ve been at in the past and I’m finding lots of coins I missed because I didn’t hear them so a huge thank you too you for sharing your setting they absolutely work great. 👍 thanks and please keep up the great work on the videos.
Wow @Ed W thanks so much mate, I am so glad you are enjoying my settings on the Equinox 800. They certainly help make those deep targets stand out amongst the trash👌
Thanks again for the great feedback and happy hunting👍⛏
I do mostly beach hunting will these setting work in beach mode, thanks
Wow, excellent tutorial on settings and thank you for putting this out there.
Will these be ideal for US coins as well?
You are most welcome @Diggin' Duo, these settings have helped so many over the years and work really well, im happy to share.
And yes, there is alot that use my settings for US coins and with great success👌
Happy hunting out there⛏
Will this program work on beach 1, on a British shingle beach?
hmm using this settings i missed some coins. No signal output on some "short & small signals".. Field worked just fine for me.
Molto utile e comprensibile domani proverò le nuove impostazioni grazie
Excellent Luke - I thought I knew my Equinox-800 but your settings and the explanation has brought me to the next level. Much appreciated
Thanks so much @Peter Hutwelker I am so glad you enjoyed and found helpful watching this video. There is always plenty to learn with the Equinox 800 but once setup right, it's such a great machine.
I really hope these settings help in future, best of luck and happy hunting out there mate👍⛏
I would love the set up but no chance of following the instructions, an age thing I think.
Thank you so much! I have few good old sites - and will try this over easter. And then try your mod for goldies after school holidays ;)
Most welcome Annie, I really hope they work well for you and you can unearth items previously missed or even help you pick up on those desirable items at any new sites for future🙂
Happy Hunting out there⛏
Hello do tou have this in a text file. Thanx from The Netherlands
Would these settings be ok for the nox 900 as well
No sorry @Clixense the 800 and 900 are different in setup. I do however have a couple of videos showing how I setup the 900 below with great success.
Best of luck👍

Ok cheers luke thanks for the info
@clixsense most welcome anytime. Be sure to let me know if you need and more help for future. Happy digging🙂⛏️
How can I get a printable copy of your Equinox 800 Coin Shooting Program, any info mod appreciated, I've looked at your Facebook to no avail
Hi there @Tim Walker have you got an email address available mate. I can send these settings to you to print out and use for future👍
I just got a 800 and am worried I bought above my ability.
Is the book you use your own or a publication.
Hi there @Dan Daugherty don't be to intimated by your new Equinox mate, they are quite easy to learn and operate once you put a few hours in.
Yes that booked you seen in my video is also just something I've made up for myself.
If you follow the link in the videos description to the detecting Facebook group though, you will find my settings available for download in the Topics section👍
Also be sure to watch plenty of videos to, I have over 100 uploaded videos to my channel now running the equinox 800 with plenty of tips and tricks provided.
Best of luck and happy hunting out there Dan👍⛏
That was very good mate Thankyou I’m just starting on an nox800 same as you to I’ve been doing gold with 4500 but now want to learn this machine
Most welcome mate, once learnt, these settings work really well. Best of luck and hope you enjoy running the new Nox 800👍⛏
Hello I would like to know is there somewhere I can purchase the book with your settings. Or do you have them somewhere for download. Thanks I really enjoy your videos keep up the great work.
Hi there @James Favre thanks heaps mate, I am really glad you enjoyed watching. These settings shown in this video are available for download or printing on the Dig It Detecting Facebook Group. Located in the topics section up top of Group. I really hope this helps for future hunting🙂
facebook.com/groups/340190050182205/?ref=share_group_link
Fantastic help. Been digging chunks of rubbish for a fortnight and went over the same ground and dug up a pocket full of coins with these settings. Thanks
Thanks so much for watching @MacDougall Partnership and the great feedback! These equinox-800 settings definitely help make those coins stand out amongst the trash...especially the goldies👌
I am really glad you are enjoying and I wish you the best of luck for future hunting⛏️ Cheers heaps🙂
Hi mate you are LIEk my mentor,do you have settings for Gold on the box 800👍
Hi there @Donald van Rensburg thanks so much mate, I really do appreciate it and so glad you are enjoying my videos and Channel.
I love being able to help people out there and sharing my finds at the same time is just awesome!
I unfortunately don't do any gold hunting with the Equinox 800 sorry, so unsure if there is any best settings to use. I have however seen quite a few have good success using the factory gold settings over the years though. Maybe try out using gold mode 1 and even tweak a few settings as you go if need mate. I might have a bit of a go myself in future now and see what i think also.
Cheers heaps again Donald, happy hunting out there mate👍⛏️
Wow...I gotta say I kind of found your channel by chance as I've been checking out so many videos on the Nox800 which I just bought a couple of weeks ago....and I watched this video and quickly subscribed....(also good to see an Aussie Tutorial as well) . Thanks for this Info, definitely going to check on your other vids....cheers mate!!
Thanks so much David and really glad you enjoyed mate. I hope you find these settings helpful and any future videos also.
I really appreciate the Sub to, cheers again mate. Happy hunting👍⛏
Thank-you for such an informative and comprehensive instruction, I'm thinking of buying one of these I'm new to this l live in Gippsland and am confused between the more expensive mine-labs you have helped me decide immensely thank you..I really just want to get out and exercise and discover a new hobby thank-you so much for sharing your tips and experiences.
@Doc from Down-Under you are most welcome mate and I am so glad you enjoyed watching and also found this video to be helpful.
It's really nice to be able to share some handy information to help others out there get started.
Be sure to check out the new Minelab Vanquish range also, the 540 being my main recommendation to buy.
They are a great machine and also run the exact same Multi-IQ technology as the Equinox but half the price! I have the Vanquish 540 as a secondary detector for myself and my eldest son to use and they are very capable.
Best of luck mate and happy hunting out there in future👍⛏
Excellent video, I have programmed my newly bought 800 to your settings. Question, all these settings in your video that you set in Park 1 mode, when you go to Park 2, Field modes and Beach modes and Prospecting modes are all the settings for those still at default or your settings affect those modes too as well as Park 1?
3 years on are you still running the same settings? I’ll be running yours from here on in. Great video. Thank you
I sure am @Bowerbird prospecting and still having fantastic results. These are the only settings I ever run and likewise with so many others around the world🙂 I really hope you enjoy! Thanks heaps🙂⛏️
Luke can you use these settings on feild 1 or 2 in stead of park I have tried but it won't go I throught I would try something different because we are in nt qld ..and at old silver and tin miners so there is hot rock and trash .I do have a bit of trouble but do find the odd thing here and there I have turn threshold down Ferris at 0 or 2 recovery at 8 and go low and slow any ideas thanks
Hi there @Anita Tunstead unfortunately my settings can only be set into park 1 mode.
Field 1 and 2 mode is limited to the changes that can be made.
I reckon you are doing all the right things, however I would just try knocking that recovery speed down a little to maybe 6 and even try detecting in different frequencies. The lower 5khz frequency range can be really helpful when hunting for those deep silver coins in trashy areas.
I really hope this helps🙂⛏️
You are going to need another house to put all your stuff in i found everything you can imagine even a 18 k open face pocket watch weighing in about 18 grams of gold
Haha I think so to @ChrissyEis my collection has grown out of control over the years! I actually bought another display case last month on special...that being my 7th to fill up now. Only problem is I have no room left to set it up😆
I need that bigger house 100%
Thanks so much for watching, I'm really glad you enjoyed😊⛏️
do you also have a beach program also?
Hi can you do me a good video for field 1 please 🙏
When I put your settings in under Park 1, do they also set up the same for Field 1 and 2? Or do I need to go into every mode and set them to your settings also??
Unfortunately my settings can only be setup and used in park 1 mode @Catrina Tixier all other modes (field 1&2 etc) are different and are limited to how much you can change.
Kia Ora bro' your settings is awesome, tried it here in Nz, I have never found so many gold coins before thank you so much take care out there and a happy hunting.
Thats awesome to hear and thanks so much for the great feedback, I really appreciate it🙂
These settings certainly help those coins stand out alot clearer in trashy areas!
Best of luck and happy hunting out there for future mate👍⛏
I have a 800 coming in a couple of days, thanks for this video. QUESTION... I am looking for the best machine to hunt deep in the woods for buried jars, pots, etc... hopefully containing coins and valuables. I won't be looking for items smaller than a jar. I have The Gemini and the Whites 2-box, but wondered if I could find a swing machine to use instead. (maybe not swing it, but walk slow)... Would the 800 with the right coil be a good choice? What would you recommend for under $3,000.00 usd?
Hi there @Parrot Coop that is great to hear! The Equinox 800 is more than capable to be able to locate such items buried or lost deep in the woods.
It has great depth, a long lasting battery and also nice and light to carry and use for prolonged periods of time. I would highly recommend the Equinox 800 to anyone hunting for the first time and even the professionals. A great all round machine👌
Best of luck and happy hunting out there mate👍⛏
@@DigItDetecting Grazie from Roma Italy
You are most welcome @FVE Metafonia Italia I really hope this helps. Happy hunting and enjoy🙂⛏
When you do factory preset do you lose the latest firmware update? Just found you and subbed, wondering if this is a good place to start.
No Steve, when doing a factory preset you won't lose the latest firmware update...its only the settings you have adjusted during last operation, that will be returned to default.
Thanks heaps for the Sub and best of luck mate👍⛏
awesome! Do you have any setting advice for the 600?
I am really glad you enjoyed watching this video @FranksFlyTraps the Equinox 600 is unfortunately limited in what can be changed, however best advice would be to run that iron bias down low at 1 or even 0 and your recovery speed up Max at 3 mate. This will help open up the 600 and allow it to not mask those good targets amongst the trash. I really hope it helps and would love to hear how you go for future🙂 Also be sure to check out my Equinox 600 playlist below👍 Cheers heaps for watching mate!
ua-cam.com/play/PLPM0FCB5p7VeoEXQoxlliD7J5oUg2542c.html
Would them setting be ok for first time user just bought the equinox 800 live in the Uk
They sure will @Stuart there is Equinox users all over the world using these coin settings now and with great results to.
Best of luck mate and I hope they work well for you also👍⛏️
Any videos on Equinox 600
Amazing listening to what you have to say. I do understand frequencies although I’m a newbie in md setup menus so this video is now saved as a holy grail. Cant thank you enough
Thanks so much for watching @The Doctor I am really glad that you enjoyed this video and found it to be helpful when setting up the Equinox 800👍 Be sure to check out my Tips and Trick Playlist below for plenty more great videos and information!

Thanks so much for sharing, I'm a brand newbie just charged and setup my nox and of course it's dark now here in NZ, can't wait to get out in the morning!
You are most welcome Amber, I really hope these settings help you. Just be sure to set your recovery speed and iron bias as needed, like I mention in video. Best of luck and happy hunting in the morning🙂⛏
Will it work in Arizona? Or just your area? Not all dirt is the same.
I am certain they will @Bryan Mclnelly, as I have had so many great reviews over the years from people all over the world using my settings and having some really good success! All you can do is give then a try also mate. Happy hunting and best of luck👍
Can you send a copy of them⛏👍
Hi , My nox is a new machine for me, did I hear you say that you don't
use beach mode for the beach?
Hi there @Jil Cowan-Stewart unfortunately I don't do much beach detecting at all around my area, If any at all. May of been mentioned by someone else, I'd say.
I mainly operate in Park 1 mode with the Equinox 800 and hunting for those coins and relics🙂
Best of luck and happy hunting with your new detector🙂⛏️
Just received my Nox 800 last Friday and found your video; VERY informative I might add. As a rookie with the Nox (previous owned Bounty Hunter; Garrett, and White) I am frustrated that the learning curve seems quite lengthy. I followed your video (stopping and restarting) to set my Nox to your described settings. One question: Are the settings saved or do I have to go through the entire setup over and over? Also, do you have a website where you have a copy of your settings displayed? I don't do FB, Twitter, ect.
Hi there Gary and thanks heaps for the great feedback.
Once these settings have been inputed into your Equinox 800, they will remain there during the switch on/off procedure. (Unless you do a factory preset)
And no sorry I only have my settings listed for download on my Facebook group at the moment👍
@@DigItDetecting be a sport and email the guy the setting? just sayin!
Hi Dig It Detecting, I'm currently getting into using your setup, I just bought my Equinox 800 and noticed that my signals go berserk just signalling 50c, $1, $2 coins.. Thats just on default havent worked on it at all so I'm going to try your setup to see how it goes, I see that you are using Detect Eds Carbon Frame.. Have you attempted to use a 15inch Coil with it? Just wanted to know how it balances in terms of heaviness etc.
Kind regards
Daniel.
Hi brilliant channel l read somewhere that l can access the pdf of this setting l am a beginner so need to go through it more slowly
Thanks so much for watching @Paul Haynes I am really glad you enjoyed and found helpful to mate. There is also a list of these settings that are able to be downloaded and printed off by visiting the Dig It Detecting Facebook Group. I really hope it helps, thanks again and happy hunting out there mate👍⛏️
Hi from England yorkshire will try these settings
Hi there @Philip Hemsworth I have had plenty of others from all around the world trying these settings also and love them. Happy hunting and best of luck out there👍⛏
Dude! These settings work great! Thank you!
Im really glad you are enjoying @darrinthompson4157 I still run these exact same settings myself today on the 800. Best of luck and happy digging mate👍⛏️
Hi can I use these settings on field mode? And is it deeper in field mode
I metal detect fields
Thanks
Hi there @MC MIKEY B #Fragger #Executives thanks so much for watching🙂
Unfortunately my settings shown in the video can only be set in Park 1 mode.
The other modes, such as field 1 mode are limited in the changes that can be made, compared to Park 1 mode. However I use these settings wherever I hunt and have great results.
Be sure to set it up and give it a test out and I would love to hear any feedback you may have. There is plenty of others around the world using them with great success also. Best of luck and happy hunting out there for future🙂⛏️
Never delete this video my friend
100% @AHD - Appalachian History Detectives this is one video that will never get deleted mate. It has helped hundreds if not thousands of Equinox users out there in the past and certain to keep helping for future im sure!
Glad you enjoyed, cheers heaps mate👍
Minelab 600 not sure if this the same, someone asked I don’t have one
No unfortunately the 600 is limited in the changes that are able to made compared to the 800.
Well explained! I work mostly in desert areas looking for Anything, I pretty much run the detector on field two, 50 tones and punch that horseshoe. Recently I’ve been going to parks using the same settings. I’ll go ahead and plug in your settings, It’ll be fun to try something different. Thanks!
Thanks so much mate and glad you enjoyed. I hope you can find these new settings useful and would really love to hear any future feedback.
We have had so many members have such great success with these settings...including myself. They work great👌 Best of luck and happy hunting mate👍⛏
Do you send via email these settings?
Regards Peter
Shoot me through an Email @Peter Collins and we can work it out. My email is listed on my UA-cam Channels Profile. Cheers mate👍
As far tone break, tone pitch and tone volume is concerned, those particular settings don't have any direct relation to any of the discrimination settings in the accept/reject settings and the iron bias correct? So far I prefer to just run the factory tone break, tone pitch and tone volume and adjust my sensitivity, iron bias, recovery speed as needed and just listen to the factory preset tones (I use 5 tones, 50 tones to to much) however the additional settings suggested in this video may put more emphasis on desirable targets is what I'm understanding based on the experience I have so far with my Equinox 800.
Ah mate, I’ve always been blown away seeing your finds on Facebook and to now follow you on the journey just makes it even better!
Question, have you diverted back to the original version of the Nox or have you done the upgrades as they’ve been rolling out? Cheers Reece
Thankyou so much Reece, it's been a pleasure to be able to share my finds and adventures for many out there to enjoy also.
Now being on UA-cam, I can share even more as I go!
And I end up doing the first update but that's it, so im still running Version/Update 2 in my videos mate👍
Willl your settings work on Australian and foreign coins
Yes Mike they certainly will. There is so many that are using these settings globally and finding very successful.
Best of luck and happy hunting👍
You're nailing this hobby!! Thank you for the setting tips as I will definitely give them a try, great video!
Thanks so much Mark, I have been at it for a few years now mate but loved every moment. So many treasures out there to find, just have to have the patience to dig them all. Best of luck and happy hunting out there👍⛏
FIRST look to the reviews and find out what replacement parts you should get right from the start. Don't be disappointed, Be aware of what you need to replace.
Greatness!
Great video Luke, you made some interesting points that I hadn't thought of before.
(Sean J O'Brien) 👍
Thankyou so much Sean, I am really glad you enjoyed the video and learnt a few more tips and tricks as we went. Best of luck for any future hunting mate. Cheers👍⛏
Why is it called 50 tones with only 25 selectable?
50 tones is meaning how many tones the Equinox can associate with multiple different targets in the ground at one time @warren hummel I only ever use the Equinox in 5 tones though and find it alot easier to ID targets as I go👍
Hey man thanks for the video and chat on FB. I see in the video you operate in Park 1. Have you tried the Field Modes and if you have have you noticed a difference with it and Park Mode with these settings?
Thanks so much @Appalachian History Detective I am really glad you are enjoying my Channel and videos mate.
And yes, I mainly operate in park 1 mode, being the best mode to be able to make adjustments in.
I have done a bit of detecting in field mode 1 & 2 but not with my coin settings included. I just stick with Park 1 mode now and that offers the best depth and setup for coin hunting for a variety of different sites👍
GR8 to hear from someone else who uses PARK 1 to detect...(park 2 for the fine search)...ive been detecting with the nox for around 5 yrs now & its upped my find rate 50...80%, if this machine is set up rite...it WILL NOT let you walk past anything that is classed as a desirable target ! subbed ya,
all the best GL&HH Gordon "CASSOP'S NOX DIGGER"
Im really glad you enjoyed watching this video @CASSOP'S NOX DIGGER I love hunting in park 1 mode! And with my settings included, those coins and targets sure do stand out loud and clear. As you say, very hard to walk past👌
Cheers heaps for watching Gordon and thanks so much for the Sub and support mate🤝
what was it like pulling an entire pistol out of the ground?
Unfortunately i have only ever found toy capguns @Chris Then however I think they are still brilliant to find mate and alot of fun to display😁
Does the coil size matter? Or will these settings work on standard or small coil the same? As I don't use FB can you reply back with a txt list of settings? Thank you
Francis
Not at all @Francis Mills using the smaller coil will give exactly the same TID numbers and tones etc as the bigger 11inch does.
I can't share my settings through comment here unfortunately either, there is to much to include in a comment sorry. Best to see if you can lend someone's Facebook to view and download the settings for future. Best of luck and happy hunting out there👍⛏
@@DigItDetecting Thanks! And no worries on the settings I just used the video. I loaded up your program settings and went straight out to a local park which detected by others regularly. I found 7 quarters, 1 dime, and three pennies in 30 minutes! And only dug two trash targets!!! Wow It was unbelievable I found two of the coins next to someone else's previous plug! Your settings and the 6" coil are incredible 👏.
Wow thats is awesome to hear!! Great going @Francis Mills I am so happy to hear that you had such successful results hunting👌
My coin settings certainly help distinguish between the more desirable targets in trashy ground...and with the 6inch coil included, it's almost like cheating!
Best of luck and happy hunting out there for future. I look forward to chatting again hopefully in my next video, cheers heaps mate👍⛏
I have an equinox 600 and haven't gone too deep into the settings beyond cancelling out target id's. Will most of your settings work with my detector?
Hi there @Tim Offen unfortunately the Equinox 600 is limited in the changes that can be made compared to the 800.
However some of the changes made in my video will be helpful and can be similarly altered with the 600.
I will be sure to shoot a video explaining more for the 600 in future.
Best of luck and happy hunting out there mate👍⛏️
@DIG IT DETECTING thanks for the reply, I could only get away with buying the 600 when it was on discount and by telling the wife it was 100 less than I paid. I was looking through my detector and noticed I only have a recovery speed up to 3 and an iron bias up to 3 (still found plenty of rusty bottle caps last night on the beach)
Most welcome @Tim Offen and I completely understand that to mate, it can be hard to explain why we need such expensive toys for our hobbies! Metal Detecting is a great one to have though👌
And yes the equinox 600 has a max recovery setting of 3, plus a iron bias setting of 3, compared to the equinox 800 Max being 8.
...However in comparison your iron bias 3 is like me running the nox 800 at iron bias 8.
Therefore your setting of 2 would be somewhere in between 4-5 for the nox 800.
I hope that all makes sense😄
If you're detecting in a very high trash area be sure to bump up the recovery speed to 3 this will help individualize targets a lot easier and hopefully not miss too much as you go. If the site has little to no trash though, then best to run the recovery speed down a little lower to 0-1 and swing a little slower. This will help you gain a little more depth when hunting at the beach👍
Hi buddy only had the nox 800 for a day would I be good to start with this I have some idea as av just got rid of the vanquish 440 cheers good video
Hi there @Bunny Basher most definitely! The coin set up shared in this video is great for starting out and targeting in on those coins. I think it's probably best to start with my program first to, as you will learn the tones and sounds of the targets you are chasing instead of the standard tones and sounds. Then having to relearn them it again later.
I am sure with the amount of success that these settings have provided me and other people around the world for years now, they will be just as helpful for you also!
Best of luck and happy hunting out there🙂🫣I look forward to seeing you on future videos⛏️
@@DigItDetecting thanks so much I set it up as you said and I was strait on the silver yesterday thanks so much too man
That is bloody brilliant @Bunny Basher well done indeed man👌 Sounds like you are off to a great start. Happy digging mate👍⛏️
@@DigItDetecting thanks buddy try get back out some point this week to menny hobby's and not enuff time to do them in
How come I only have t1 and t2 in volume adjust? I cannot go any further
Are you inputting these settings on Park 1 mode? @Town Everything
@DIG IT DETECTING yes sorry I meant to get back to you earlier... I just did another reset and was able to get it going! Found some neat stuff in my back yard! Thank you!!!
Thanks mate ime gonna try this this afternoon 👍
Most welcome @Graham Crofts I really hope you find them helpful mate. Best of luck out there👍⛏️
😇👌
Thanks so much for sharing your know how. Understand a lot more now and have been motivated by your video.
Will these settings work on beaches?
@Mcseeker86 they sure will, just make sure to adjust your iron bias and recovery speed according to how trashy the site is at the time. Best of luck and happy hunting👍⛏
Great education. Awesome Channel. Thank you. I'm on board-Subscribed! Thumbs up -700, Wow!!
Thanks so much @Gulf Coast Metal Detecting I am really glad you enjoyed watching this video and found it to be helpful to mate. I really appreciate the Sub also! Happy hunting out there and best of luck mate👍⛏
Will these settings work on the 900?? Or do you have a different video for that?
Can someone suggest the proper settings on the 800 for a seeded hunt where the items are all going to be metal washers of various sizes. The washers are probably going to be on the surface and not buried. Please don't suggest attaching a magnet to my coil 🤪
Are this settings applied to all modes?
Only Park 1 mode @Jakey Senpai 👍
im trying to to dig a former rock quarry i found only 3 spikes in at least 8 or so visits ! i will try the equinox 800! i want to find 1 more lol
