DETECTING METAL OBJECTS

When scanning for metal objects press the metal-detection button 5.

The metal detection indicator symbol c is indicated in the display and the illuminated ring 1 lights up green. Position

the measuring tool onto the surface to be scanned and move it sidewards, when the measuring tool comes close to a

metal object, the amplitude of the measuring indicator f increases; when it moves away form the object, the amplitude

decreases, at the position of maximum amplitude, the metal object is located below the center of the sensor (below the

marking opening 2). As long as the measuring tool is above the metal object, the illuminated ring 1 lights up red and a

steady tone sounds.

To localize the object precisely, press the “ZOOM” button 3 and keep it pressed while repeatedly (3x) moving the measur-

ing tool over the object. The “ZOOM” function indicator d appears in the display. The “ZOOM” measuring indicator e

has the greatest amplitude over the center of the metal object.

When very small or deeply embedded metal object is being detected and the measuring indicator f does not react, press the

“ZOOM” button 3 and keep it pressed while continuing to move the measuring tool over the area. Observe only the zoom

measuring indicator e for the scan. If there are any metal inclusions in the material being scanned, then a continuous signal

is indicated in the measuring indicator f. In this case, press the “ZOOM” button 3 and keep it pressed while continuing to

move the measuring tool over the area. Observe only the “zoom”measuring indicator e for the scan.

If the metal object found is a magnetic (e.g. iron), then the indicator for magnetic metals h is displayed. For non-magnetic

metals, the indicator for non-magnetic metals i is displayed. In order for the measuring tool to differentiate between the

metal types, it must be positioned above the detected metal object (the illuminated ring 1 lights up red). For weak signals,

the indication of the metal type is not possible.
