Caution: if you placed the instrument onto the surface to be scanned under which
a wooden object is coincidentally located, light indicator becomes red and sound
signal is emitted. In this case, start scanning again by repositioning the instrument
aside from the area where wooden object was detected.
Detection of live wires
Press button to activate live wires detection mode. If the instrument emits sound
signal and red light indicator is blinking please perform calibration:
place the instrument to an around no metal and strong magnetic field interference
environment (for example, hold the instrument up in the air), again press button
and hold it pressed until green light indicator is on and you hear beep sound.
Calibration is finished. You can start operation.
The instrument can detect "live" wires/conductors with 40-60 Hz of AC. Other wires/
conductors can only be indicated as metal objects.
"Live" wires/conductors are indicated both during metal scan as well as during a
wood scan. When a "live" wire/conductor is detected, symbol
display. Move the instrument over the surface repeatedly in order to localize the "live"
wire/conductor more precisely. After moving the instrument over the surface several
times, the "live" wire/conductor can be indicated quite precisely. If the instrument
is very close to the wire/conductor (detected object approximation degree tends to
100%), the red light indicator is on and sound signal is emitted.
Under certain conditions (if hidden behind metal surfaces or high humidity surfaces),
"live" wires/conductors cannot be easily detected. These surfaces can be recognized
in metal detection mode. When a detected object approximation degree is the same
all over a large area, then the material is like an electric screen and results of "live"
wires/conductors scanning are not reliable.
The static electricity may cause inaccurate detection results .In order to improve the
