6. Instruccions de funcionament
6.1. Encendre/apagar
- Premeu el botó ON/OFF button to turn the device on. The LCD will illuminate.
- Premeu el botó ON/OFF botó de nou per apagar el dispositiu.
6.2. Selecting a Scan Mode
Després d'encendre, premeu el botó ► (mode selection) button to cycle through the available detection modes: STUD, METAL, DEEP, and AC. The selected mode will be indicated on the LCD display.
6.3. Scanning Procedure
- Col·loca el dispositiu: Position the scanner flat against the surface you wish to scan. Ensure the sensor area on the back is in full contact.
- Press and Hold 'PUSH': While keeping the device flat against the surface, press and hold the EMPUJAR button located on the side. The device will calibrate for a few seconds. Do not move the device during calibration.
- Scan the surface: Slowly slide the device horizontally across the surface. Keep it flat and maintain constant pressure.
- Interpret results: As the device detects an object, the signal strength bars on the LCD will increase, and an audible beep will sound. The specific mode indicator (STUD, METAL, DEEP, AC) will also highlight.
- Mark the location: When the signal strength is highest, mark the location. Continue scanning past the object to determine its edges.
Figura 6.1: Examples of detection modes. This image shows three scenarios: AC detection near an electrical outlet, Stud detection locating a wooden beam, and Metal detection identifying a metal pipe within a wall.
Figura 6.2: Detection indication. This image illustrates the device detecting an object, with the LCD displaying a series of arrowheads and an audible 'Beep!' indicating a find. The user is shown pressing the 'PUSH' button during detection.
6.4. Specific Mode Usage
- Escaneig de stud: Use to locate the edges and center of wooden studs behind drywall.
- Escaneig de metalls: Use to detect metal pipes, rebar, or other metallic objects.
- Deep Scan: Provides increased depth for detecting studs and metal objects that are further embedded in the wall.
- Escaneig de CA: Specifically designed to detect live unshielded AC electrical wiring. Always confirm power is off before any work.
7. Manteniment
- Neteja: Netegeu el dispositiu amb un suau, damp tela. No utilitzeu netejadors abrasius ni dissolvents.
- Emmagatzematge: Guardeu el dispositiu en un lloc sec i fresc, allunyat de la llum solar directa i de temperatures extremes.
