For steel wire mesh and reinforcements in the scanned structural material,

an amplitude of the measuring indicator f is displayed over the complete

surface. In this case, always use the “Zoom” function for the scan. For steel

wire mesh, it is typical that the indicator for magnetic metals h is displayed

directly above the rebar; the indicator for non-magnetic metals i is dis-

played between the rebars.

Detecting Wooden Objects

When scanning for wooden objects, press the wood-detection button 5.

The wood detection indicator symbol b and the “Zoom” function indicator

d are indicated in the display and the arrow below the “Zoom” function indi-

cator d flashes. The “AutoCal” calibration indicator g and the illuminated

ring 1 go out.

Position the measuring tool onto the surface being scanned. Then press

the “ZOOM” button 4 and keep it pressed. Now the illuminated ring 1

lights up green, the “AutoCal” calibration indicator g is displayed again,

the “Zoom” function indicator d as well as the arrow below it go out.

With the “ZOOM” button 4 pressed, evenly move the

measuring tool over the surface without lifting off or chang-

ing the applied pressure. While measuring, the felt pads 8

must always be in contact with the surface.

When a wooden object is detected, an amplitude is dis-

played in the measuring indicator f. Move the measuring

tool over the surface repeatedly to localise the wooden

object more precisely. After moving over the same area

several times, the wooden object can be indicated quite accurately: The

illuminated ring 1 lights up red and a steady tone sounds as long as the

measuring tool is over the wooden object. The measuring indicator f has

the greatest amplitude over the centre of the wooden object. The “Zoom”

measuring indicator e is inactive when scanning for wooden objects.

Caution: When having placed the measuring tool onto the surface to be

scanned under which a wooden object is coincidentally located, and hav-

ing moved it over the surface, the measuring indicator f, the arrow below

the “Zoom” function indicator d and the illuminated ring 1 flash red. In this

case, start the scan again by repositioning the measuring tool somewhat

offset onto the structure and pressing the “ZOOM” button 4 again.

When scanning for wooden objects, metal objects are sometimes also

indicated as objects found at depths between 20–50 mm. To distinguish

between wooden and metal objects, switch to the detecting-metal function

(see “Detecting Metal Objects”). When an object is indicated at the same

location in this function, then it is clearly a metal object and not a wooden

object. To continue searching for wooden objects, switch back to the

detecting-wood function.

Scanning for “Live” Wires

The measuring tool indicates lines that carry a voltage between 110 V and

400 V with frequencies corresponding to the widespread standard (AC

with 50 or 60 Hz). Other lines (DC, higher/lower frequency or voltage) are

indicated only as metal objects.

“Live” wires/conductors are indicated both during a metal scan as well as

during a wood scan. When a “live” wire/conductor is detected, the indica-

tor a appears in the display. Move the measuring tool over the surface

repeatedly in order to localise the “live” wire/conductor more precisely.

After moving the measuring tool over the surface several times, the “live”

wire/conductor can be indicated quite precisely. If the measuring tool is

very close to the wire/conductor (four or five bars in indicator a), the illumi-

nated ring 1 flashes red and the signal tone sounds with a rapid tone

sequence.
