* Reminder: Please check whether the accessories are complete

Battery installation

• Please refer to the picture to install the positive and negative poles of the battery.

Boot page

• Short press the button to turn on, and it will enter the metal detection mode.

Metal detection

Metal detection: Ferrous metal detection

• The maximum detection depth of ferrous metals is 60mm.
• After the product is turned on, it can be detected after being calibrated against the wall.
• When the measured object is a standard steel-reinforced copper pipe with a diameter of 18mm, the depth value accuracy is the best.
• Fe-containing metal detected nearby.
• When the detector displays a magnetic metal symbol, it means that the current measured object is generally steel.

Metal detection: non-magnetic metal

• The maximum detection depth of soldering iron metal is 50mm.The detection method is the same as that of ferrous metals.
• When the detector does not display a magnetic or non-magnetic metal symbol, it means that the current measured object is generally an alloy.
• When the center is detected, the buzzer will sound.
• When the detector displays a non-magnetic metal symbol, it means that the current measured object is generally a wire or copper tube.

Wood Stud detection

• Wood Stud detection are suitable for detection on gypsum boards.
• Detection needs to be lightly close to the wall and always in contact with the wall.
• Long press for 3 seconds to switch depth mode, the green light flashes and a beep sounds.
• The edge of the object is detected, the percentage will gradually increase.
• The center point of the object is detected.

Alternating current detection

Detect center

• When the AC power symbol of the detector flashes, it means there is AC power nearby.

When AC power is detected

When AC power is detected with other objects

• When detecting metal or wood and AC power is detected at the same time, the AC power symbol will be displayed.
• When AC power is detected with other objects
  • Live cables can be detected in both metal mode and foreign object mode (≥4mm-).
• Warning: If the wall contains wires, please pay attention to safety.
• Turn off the power, gas and water before drilling.
• When AC power is detected with wood stud

Detect Wire mode

• The maximum detection depth of a live cable is 50mm; if the cable is not charged, the detection depth will be reduced. Conditions affecting measurement depth:

Terms and Conditions

• This detector can detect metals (rebars, copper pipes) and cables hidden in walls, ceilings and floors; wooden beams, metals, and cables under plaster:
• Ensure that there is no moisture in the detection area before starting up.

Working humidity range:

• 0-85%RH for ferrous metals,
• 0-60%RH for foreign object mode,
• 0-30%RH for alternating current mode.

Conditions to be calibrated

• In any case the instrument has a signal display, it needs to be calibrated.

Moisture measurement

Warning: If used incorrectly, the probe tip may cause injury.

• When the equipment is not in use, replace the protective cover and keep the tools away from children.

• Enter wood moisture detection mode by default Wood moisture measurement range: 5%-50RH/+2%

• Remove the probe cover and place the probe on the measurement surface without applying too much force.

• In order to ensure the accuracy of the measurement data, the probe must be inserted into the measurement material during measurement and maintain good contact.

• To locate the leaks in the water pipe on the wall, take measurements at different locations.

The leak point is where the tool shows the highest reading

• After a large change in the ambient temperature, wait at least 30 minutes for the measurement to ensure the accuracy of the measurement.

Building moisture measurement method is the same as wood measurement

• Moisture measurement range of building materials: 1.5%-33%RH/+2%

Calibration method

Metal mode calibration

• Place the instrument in an environment free from metal and strong magnetic field interference (such as: Lifting the instrument into the air by hand,) press and hold the metal button for 3 seconds,  and the green light will turn on again to indicate a successful calibration.

Cable mode calibration

• If there is an alarm sound in every corner of the room, this is due to high humidity or strong static electricity on the wall.
• At the current position (either on the wall or in the air), long press the button to calibrate, the green light will turn on again, and the signal strength percentage will display 0%.
• Release the button to continue detection.

Wood mode calibration

• Attach it to the wall to ensure that there is no object in the wall for calibration (when there is no object, the display percentage shows 0% and there is no AC icon).
• Long press the wood mode button for 2s, the green light will light up again and a beep will sound, release the button to continue detection.

Parameter

Maintenance, Service, Cleaning

• Use a dry and soft cloth to wipe off the dirt on it.
• Do not use detergent or other solutions.
• Do not stick labels or metal nameplates on the detection areas on the front and back sides of the instrument.
• Use the enclosed packaging to store and carry the instrument.

Disposal of waste

• The damaged detector, product accessories and packaging must be recycled and used in a manner that meets environmental requirements
• The right to modify is reserved.
