Technische Daten
Typical measuring depths
Wooden beams of 30 × 30 mm:
≤
30 mm
Metal pipe of Ø 20 mm:
≤
50 mm
Voltage for 90 – 250 V
bei 50 – 60 Hz:
≤
50 mm
Operating temperature
-7 °C – 40 °C below 75 % RH
Storage temperature
-20 °C – 50 °C below 85 % RH
Power supply
9 V compound (e. g. 6LR61)
The detection depth may vary due to the humidity contained in the material,
the wall structure and the paint etc.
Operating the device
Switching on
Press and hold the “TEST/ON” button for approx. 3 seconds.
The device switches on and displays the last mode used.
Wood detection mode
1. Press the “Select” button until the display for the wood detection mode
appears. Hold the device against the wall and briefly press the “TEST/ON”
button. Two short tones sound to indicate that the device is calibrated.
If the display flashes, you must recalibrate the device at another location.
Move the device across the wall applying a consistent contact pressure.
2. If the alarm indicator appears, a signal sounds. Stop the device. This
means that it has found a corner of the wood. Mark the point with a pen.

3. Continue moving the device slowly
sideways across the wall until the
alarm indicator disappears and the
signal no longer sounds. Then move in
a different direction to determine the
extent and centre point of the wood.
See Figure 1.
Correcting an incorrect reading:
If the display starts flashing and a beep tone sounds, start again a few
millimetres further on.
Note
1. The function can normally be performed on plasterboard walls. If other
materials are used in the walls or behind the wall covering, the readings
may be impaired.
2. If, by chance, you are holding the device directly over a wooden batten
or a similar object when you start, neither the display nor the alarm will
activate. Please move the device slightly to a new position.
3. The wall surface on which you are using the device should be even.
4. We also recommend that you use the “metal detection and voltage
detection” mode to check that the wooden batten or beam is not a pipe
or a cable. The device can detect small screws or nails.
5. Always hold the device with one hand while keeping your other hand
away from the device to prevent interference from the second hand.
6. The device may not be able to precisely identify two objects that directly
abut each other inside the wall.
Metal detection mode
1. Press the “Select” button until the display for the metal detection mode
appears. Hold the device away from any metal objects and briefly press
the “TEST/ON” button. Two short tones sound. Move the device slowly
across the wall applying a consistent contact pressure.
2. If the alarm indicator appears, a signal sounds. Stop the device. This
means that it has found a corner of a metal object. Mark the point.

3. Continue moving the device slowly
sideways across the wall until the alarm
indicator disappears and the signal no
longer sounds. Then move in a
different direction to determine the
extent and centre point of the metal.
See Figure 2.
