Guide: How to Install Minelab Vanquish Firmware Update

Since a new upgrade has recently become available for all three models of Vanquish, check out this instruction to download and install the software.

First and foremost, follow these requirements:

USB 2.0 port
Low Profile Micro USB Cable
batteries must be in place and charged
the coil must be connected
only one Vanquish can be connected at a time, to perform the update
custom settings will be preserved during the update
high quality Internet connection is required for download; however, the update itself can be completed offline

Step By Step Instruction

Here is the list of steps you should take:

open the battery lead, leave the battery in place, and connect the USB cable
open Minelab Update Utility
connect the Vanquish to a computer with the USB cable
Vanquish will switch on, and the Utility will identify it to recognize the version of the software on the machine. If the update is
available, the Utility will show it to you
if you want to use the new version, click Install
if no upgrade is needed, or available, click Quit
you will see the progress bar being filled on the screen, as the software is downloaded
the software will take about a minute to install onto the metal detector
upon installation is complete, the Utility will restart the metal detector
disconnect the detector, and quit the application

Please keep in mind that, if you have multiple Vanquish machines, the process is the same for each, but you can’t upgrade them in bulk.
