Im looking at a t2 ,i have to give the guy an answer to night how can you tell if its the upgrade version,5 r6?????thanks!!!!!is 455.00 shipped a good price???
 
Too good to pass on.....So, I wouldn't worry about what version it is as the R5 is deeper in the opinion of many.....
In fact, I'd rather have an R5 version myself because I don't have any need for bottle cap type stuff they added.....
The T2 manual will tell you exactly what buttons to hole to see an R6 show on the LCD. I forget exactly, & don't have my manual handy. In fact, the manual I had may have even had R6 on it. I would ask the seller to check his manual if your concerned about it, but again that's an excellent price no matter the version. Especially considering an F75 is more than twice that & the T2 is better in iron.....

THANKS MY FRIEND!!!!
 
Push the trigger forward and hold it while you also press and hold the Mode button. Still holding, turn power on and the screen will display the version. 6.0 on my unit, which I sent in for the upgrade.

THANKS for the info im going to give it a try, can you tell what year it was made????and any help on the GB???I try to GB and it keep saying cant GB!!!!w hats wrong???
 
Unless it's still a version 5, I doubt there's any way to date it reliably. The circuit board inside my unit is dated 26 September, 2005 but that may just refer to the board's design creation date. Current boards may still have the same date if they haven't changed. I bought mine in 2006, it was a version 5. I had it upgraded to 6, but that's done by software. So, while it's a three-year-old machine, you probably couldn't tell just by looking as it has the upgrade and thus has the same features as a new unit, such as the dp tone mode mentioned above. No serial number on the outside anywhere, so no help dating it that way.

A separate thread asking for help with ground balance may get you better answers. Generally, it probably means there's some metal nearby, which can be just a tiny bit of something. Move the coil a bit and try again, scan using pinpoint to find a clear place to gb. Watch the iron bar graph, if it moves, probably some metal is messing things up. Some soils may just be beyond the machine's ability to gb.

There's manual gb in all-metal mode. Read the manual to see if the all-metal gb setting transfers over to disc mode, I don't remember if it does or not.
