Detecting Metal Objects
After switching on, the signal LED 2 lights up green.
Position the measuring tool on/against the surface being detected and
move it sideways.
– If no metal object is visible in the base material, then the signal LED 2
continues to illuminate green and no signal tone sounds.
– When the measuring tool comes closer to a metal object, the signal LED
2 first lights up yellow and changes to red the closer it comes to the metal
object. As soon as the signal LED lights up red, a signal tone is also emit-
ted, the pitch of which rises the closer it comes to the metal object.
– Over a metal object, the signal LED 2 illuminates red and a signal tone
is emitted at maximum pitch.
Even with a yellow signal LED 2, a metal object may be located be-
low the sensor area. Small or low-lying metal objects are located in
the vicinity of the sensor or the wall material impairs the measurement
results.
