I just received my new vanquish 540 metal detector from minelab. Appreciate your fine video on updating software. Not quite finished charging the batteries, but as soon as it happens I will install the charged batteries into the metal detector, hook it up to the computer and see if there's an update available, and if so will download it. Again thanks for very much. Will subscribe and follow your videos.
Awesome choice in detector matey 👍 appreciate the support and happy digging :-) would love to see your finds 😀 we also have a FB group under the same name :-)
Hi Mike mate, not got a Vanquish, but the same process as the Deus and Nox, and bloody hopefully the Apex...😂😂😂 All the best to you and Shaun for the New Year Take care mate Tom
i will defentely look at this video but next year, im just about to go to new year dinner and celebrate ;) happy new year my friend and thanks for your suport in my live ;)
Hello Heidimendoza re start the detector to determine if the error still remains, confirm the coil is attached correctly. Preform a factory resets by powering off the detector and then press and hold the power button for 7 seconds :-)
They don't include the proper cord to do any software updates. If you do happen to find the right cord ( I haven't yet ) good luck trying to get at the input on the unit. It's impossible to get at. I am returning this if the seller accepts that I am not happy with it. Is there a better detector out there instead of Minelab? I wont be ordering one from them again.
Sorry your having bother with the update :-( I found the process straight forward once you have the cable :-) I had to use a cable that I originally got with a phone so it would allow data transfer.
@@TheMetalDetectingChannel Thanks. After two trips to the store I finally got the right cable and it worked.All fixed now but I still say that port you plug into is very difficult to plug the cable in.
I guess it could if you had the correct set up, but it does say to use a data cable so thats what I used, let me know if you were successful with the Bluetooth connection 😉😀
Hey thank you for your support :-) I guess the rechargeable batteries depend on how good they are, I have some cheaper ones I bought from ASDA and they work fine, I can get a good days detecting out of them :-)
I'd plug it in and give it a go, I bought this before the updates, it gives you the 4hz frequency if I can remember correctly. Have you just bought one? We will have to do some more videos with the Vanquish:-)
4hz ? Sorry quite new the the sport isn’t it multi frequency working all at the same time ? I thought so mite be wrong tho and yes I brought one waiting on arrival hoping it goes deeper then my current one witch is the simplex lite thanks for the reply buddy love the content
oh interesting, i never really thought that some of the older windows wouldnt work.. hopefully this is somthing the sort out for the next update! cheers wor watching matey
Wonderbar!!! Thanks so much from Montreal Canada! Happy Swingin'!
Cheers mate glad to be a help :-) 😀

Wow thank you, I had no idea that was hidden in there, does not say in my instructions. Will try it tomorrow 🙂

Minelab really does a good job on bringing updates to there gear.

Happy new year matey
Great video mate! 👌👌
Thanks matey :-) Happy new year Luke
@@TheMetalDetectingChannel Happy New new year too Mike & Shaun 🙂🥳
Thanks I was curious about this. Now I know!
🍻
I get to the part where the window opens but it wont install. I think I have the right cord but how do you tell if its wrong?
I think you need to use a cable that's good for Data transfer, some of the cheaper cables only charge and don't allow data transfer :-)
Bought a 440 second hand do I have to go through this process in video to find out if the update has been done please.
Yes mate I know there is know way on the 340 to see what software it is on. :-)
i will defentely look at this video but next year, im just about to go to new year dinner and celebrate ;)
happy new year my friend and thanks for your suport in my live ;)
Enjoy matey, happy new year
now i have seen it ;) great info ill going direct and test it ;)
I'm glad it helped you :-)

@@kerrylittle3900 yay glad you got it sorted out :-) yeah that port is a pain in the bottom for sure :-)
@@TheMetalDetectingChannel Yes. It needs to be in the Center better
thanks. Wonder if this can be done over Bluetooth instead of cable?
I guess it could if you had the correct set up, but it does say to use a data cable so thats what I used, let me know if you were successful with the Bluetooth connection 😉😀
hi what other coils are compatible with this detector?
They have a small range of Vanquish coils available:-)
Happy New Year's.
Thanks for watching, Happy new year matey :-)
@@TheMetalDetectingChannel Anytime my friend. I have learned a lot from your channel. Happy Hunting.
And after the update, could you notice any improvement?
Is it still consuming a lot of battery or has its duration improved?
Thanks a lot.
Same really but in my opinion it seems a little more responsive
Thank you
You welcome
Thanks for the info , just a question too, are those rechargeable batteries any good ? Just bought them from Screwfix. Cheers
Hey thank you for your support :-) I guess the rechargeable batteries depend on how good they are, I have some cheaper ones I bought from ASDA and they work fine, I can get a good days detecting out of them :-)
Do u need to update this when buying new ?

Você poderia informar se essa atualização é a segunda a ser liberada?
Yes i think so, i had V1.14 on my detector and then updated to V1.16. Thank you for watching:-)
Check out our Minelab Equinox software update here
ua-cam.com/video/UNfTxO-UfSc/v-deo.html
Can this upgrade be done with a Chromebook?
I would say yes as long as you have a USB port :-)
Whats the oerohise😅
Is this a new update or the one from a few months ago. ?
I'm not sure, it updated mine to V 1.61 if thats any help :-)
That’s an old one from few months ago.
@@madoleo2555 yeah maybe :-) but the video is to show you how to update :-)
@@TheMetalDetectingChannel thanks for showing others how to do it, as not every cable works.
@@madoleo2555 ha yes this is true mate it has to be a cable that works with data.. hope you have a great New year matey :-)
Boa amigo, FELIZ ANO DE 2021! Começando a virada com novas amizades do detectorismo, siga-me, tmj em 2021.

Thank you :-)
pretty limited o/s ... win 10 or a newer mac ... so no legacy o/s will work .. -- how limiting of them ! !!
oh interesting, i never really thought that some of the older windows wouldnt work.. hopefully this is somthing the sort out for the next update! cheers wor watching matey
doesnt work
Are you using a cable that is capable of transferring Data and not just charging :-)
@@TheMetalDetectingChannel aaah.. youre right.. my mistake:D
@w1katari easily done mate, I did it the first time too :-)
