Stud Detection Procedure

1.

 Set the selector switch to "

STUD

" position. 

2. Calibration

:

    Place the unit against wall. Depress and hold the 

    TEST

 button down, the detector will begin calibration. 

    When it sounds two beeps, the calibration is 

    complete. Always keep the 

TEST

 button depressed 

    throughout all the following procedures.

3. Detection:

    

a.

 Place the detector on the surface and slowly move 

        the unit sideways (fig 1). When the detector moves 

        closer and closer to the stud, the signal LEDs will 

        light sequentially from bottom to the top. When the 

        top signal LED lights and the built-in buzzer 

        sounds continuously, the unit has detected the 

        stud's edge. Stop moving and mark a spot in the 

        detectors groove on the walls surface (fig 2).
