Detect ambient electro-smog
(i.e. electric fields from electric cables and appliances (such as computers, fuse boards, lamps and power
supplies), magnetic fields from high voltage lines, transformers and inverters, or Hyper Frequencies resulting from cell towers,
WiFi/WiMax networks or cordless landline phones, etc.)
1.
Press the “on-off” button once to
switch on the device
in standard mode.
2.
Hold the device
at arm length
away from your body.
3.
Move slowly
around to detect ambient electro-smog (the device performs a new detection every two seconds).
NB: to
switch the sound
on or off, press and hold the “on-off” button.
Detect ambient Radio Frequencies (RF) smog with enhanced sensitivity (detecting peak values)
(i.e. Radio Frequencies resulting from
cell towers, WiFi/WiMax networks or cordless landline phones, radio and TV broadcasting, etc.)
1.
Press the “on-off” button once to
switch on the device
in standard mode.
2.
Press the “select” button once to
enter high-resolution RF mode
. LED 1 and 2 will stay lit.
3.
Hold the device
at arm length
away from your body.
4.
Move slowly
around to detect ambient electro-smog (the device performs a new detection every two seconds).
NB: In this mode, all 24 LEDs show RF radiation. The LEDs at the bottom indicate the lowest radiation level while the LEDs at the top show the
highest level of radiation.
