The XP Deus USB 1 Cable is a mini-B update cable for downloading the latest firmware to your XP Deus or ORX remote control. Deus and ORX owners running older firmware versions need this cable to access performance improvements and feature additions XP releases through system updates. The cable also charges all three wireless components of the Deus system (remote control, headset, coil) plus the XP pinpointer, consolidating your charging setup into one cable.
What's Included with the XP Deus USB 1 Cable
- XP Deus USB 1 Mini-B update and charging cable
Why XP Deus and ORX Owners Need the USB Update Cable
- Firmware access: download the latest Deus and ORX system updates directly to your remote control to deploy performance tweaks and new features XP engineers release. This ensures your setup stays up to date with the latest metal detector technologies and optimization profiles.
- Universal charging: recharge your Deus remote, wireless headset, coil, and XP pinpointer with one cable, eliminating the need to carry multiple chargers in the field.
- Compact form factor: mini-B connector fits the charge port on all Deus and ORX wireless modules, and the cable packs flat in a detector bag or truck console.
- Replacement availability: lost or damaged your original cable? This is the OEM replacement from XP, ensuring proper voltage and connector fit for safe charging and data transfer.
- Cross-compatibility: works with both the Deus and ORX detector families, so one cable covers multiple machines if you run both platforms.
Firmware Updates and Multi-Device Charging for the Deus Platform
XP releases periodic firmware updates for the Deus and ORX that improve detector performance. The USB Update Cable connects your remote control to a PC or Mac running XP's update software, allowing you to download and install the latest system version in minutes. Our team runs these updates as soon as XP posts them; the performance deltas are often subtle but measurable in high-trash environments where recovery speed and target separation matter. The cable also serves as the charging interface for all wireless Deus components. Plug the mini-B end into the remote, headset, coil, or pinpointer charge port, and connect the USB-A end to any standard USB power source (wall adapter, laptop, car charger). Consolidating firmware updates and charging into one cable simplifies your kit, especially on multi-day trips where you're managing batteries for a remote, headset, and coil simultaneously.
