The XP Deus can operate without the remote control using the WS4 wireless backphone headphones as the primary control unit. The WS4 headphones include a removable electronic control panel with a display and button interface that allows you to adjust discrimination, ground balance, sensitivity, frequency, and program selection directly from the headphones. This configuration reduces total weight to 1 pound 15 ounces and simplifies the setup for detectorists who prefer a streamlined, remote-free design. The headphones communicate with the coil over the same 36-channel digital radio link, maintaining full wireless operation. For hunters who want the convenience of hip-mounting, the optional remote control (sold separately) provides a larger screen and easier menu navigation.
