3M ScanEM-EC Probe
™
The small round red tip at the end of the ScanEM-EC Probe is it's antenna.
Point it at the suspected area and keep it close to the measured spot without
making contact.
3M ScanEM-HC Probe
™
There is a pickup coil located in the tip of the ScanEM-HC Probe. In order
to locate a magnetic field emanating from a wire or cable, the coil has to
be parallel to that wire. Hold the ScanEM-HC Probe in such a way that the
seam on the plastic case is parallel to the tested wire, cable or trace. You
can easily differentiate which trace emits the most radiation by just rotating
the ScanEM-HC Probe around its longest axis (see illustration below). The
ScanEM-HC Probe will show the strongest readings when its coil is parallel
to the offending wire.

Stand-Alone Operation

In stand-alone mode, the ScanEM-C Probe is completely self-sufficient and
requires nothing else to operate.
