update question

[metalfun]

Just got my 600 last week. I read on the forum that if it had the update it would state so on the box. Doesn't say it anywhere on the box.Does this mean it needs an update? Thanks and hope this is not a dumb question.

download the updater and plug in your EQX. If you need the update, it will tell you.

Thanks Jason I will try that if I can figure out how. Not very computer savvy.

Ordering one right now, I would almost guarantee that it has the update. The update has been out for a while now, and I dont think any dealers have been sitting on old stock.

Jason in Enid, how do you plug in the 600 ? What cord do you use ? The charge cable ? Where to get the updater ? Is there a link ? Thanks.

Go to the Minelab site: Equinox update and follow the instructions.
Connect the charging cable to you Nox magnetic charging port and the USB plug to any USB port on your computer.

Wouldn't hurt to download the manual and read it, as well.
Lots of good info...

Here's where the downloadable goodies are:
600

800
https://www.minelab.com/usa/metal-detectors/treasure-detectors/equinox-800?view=downloads

*Note - it's the same software/manual for the 600 or 800, so if you've got it for one, you've got it for both.
