Method of Operation (see figure A)
The measuring tool checks the base material underneath the sensor area 1 in
measurement direction z down to the maximum detection depth (see "Technical
Data", page 21).
Select the operating mode you require.
Always move the measuring tool over the base material in a straight line along the
x-axis, applying light pressure, without lifting it off or changing the pressure. The wall
sensor 2 must be in uniform contact with the base material in order for the measure-
ment to be correct.
Hold the measuring tool by the handle with an even grip and do not touch the sensor
area 1 while taking measurements.
If the measuring tool receives a signal, this will be shown in the information area e and
the ring 7 will light up yellow. Follow the additional instructions in the information
area. Note that moving over the base material multiple times will detect objects more
precisely. If an object has been detected, this will be shown in the information area.
The ring 7 will light up red and the tool will emit a sound.
The type of object found (depending on the operating mode) will be shown on the
display:
– Power cable,
– Metal object,
– Substructure.
If no objects are found, the LED ring 7 will remain green and nothing will be shown on
the display.

Operating Modes

When detecting, you can choose between three operating modes and can activate
two modes simultaneously .
"Wood" mode (see figure B)
"Wood" mode is designed for finding wooden beams in dry walls.
When the measuring tool is placed on the wall, the ring 7 lights up yellow until the
signal can be clearly assigned by moving the measuring tool around.
Please note that when selecting this operating mode, all objects located in dry walls
will be displayed. You can only rule out the presence of a metal object or electricity
cable by combining this operating mode with the other two modes.
This operating mode will also find plastic pipes, especially those that are filled with
water. Before drilling, sawing or milling, check to ensure that the object found is actu-
ally a wooden beam and not a plastic pipe.
Only use "Wood" mode on dry walls.
