4. Kullanım Talimatları

4.1 Genel İşlem Adımları

1. Güç Açık: Press the power button (usually marked with a power symbol or "U/MODE") to turn on the device.
2. Mod seç: Use the mode button (often the same as the power button, or a separate one) to cycle through the available scanning modes until the desired mode is displayed on the LCD screen.
3. Kalibrasyon: Place the device flat against the wall surface where you intend to scan. Press and hold the "Scan" button (typically on the side) until you hear a short beep sound, indicating successful calibration. Ensure there are no objects or your hand under the scanner during calibration.
4. Tarama: While holding the "Scan" button, slowly and steadily slide the device horizontally across the surface. Maintain full contact with the wall.
5. Tespit: The LCD display will show indicators (e.g., arrows, bars, "EDGE", "CENTER") as it approaches and detects an object. An audio alarm will also sound.
6. İşaretleme: Once the center of an object is indicated, mark its position with a pencil. For best accuracy, scan the area from both left and right directions and mark the center point where the readings converge.

4.3 WireWarning Indicator

The WireWarning feature is always active in StudScan, DeepScan, and MetalScan modes. It alerts you to the presence of live, unshielded electrical AC wires up to 2 inches (51mm) deep, helping to prevent accidental drilling or cutting into electrical lines. If a live wire is detected, the AC warning icon will appear on the display, and an audio alarm will sound.

Önemli: While WireWarning is a safety feature, it is always recommended to switch to AC Scan mode to precisely locate and confirm the center of any detected live AC wires before proceeding with any work.
