at the marking position at the head of the
instrument. Continue moving the unit in the same
horizontal direction until the top LED and the
beep sound just goes out. Mark the other edge of
the stud. The stud is now located and the middle
of stud is at the center between the two marks.
Steps for locating a horizontal batten or wall
stud:
Place the instrument against the wall in a
horizontal position (Figure 2). Repeat the same
procedure for locating a vertical wall stud but
move the instrument in a vertical (top to bottom)
direction.
NOTES FOR STUD SEEKING
• In case the instrument is placed over a dense
wall surface material, such as concrete wall,
during calibration procedure; the reading only
shows difference of wall density on the
surface. It is actually not a stud.
• If by chance the instrument is placed over the
wall batten or stud during calibration, the other
studs may be hard to detect. It is suggested
that you frequently re-calibrate on various
place on the same wall to avoid the false
readings. To do so, press Scan button once and
repeat the above procedures.
• The stud detection can be carried out normally
on wallpapered walls. However, it may not
function on some types of foil-backed or
metallic fabric surfaces.
• A double width of stud will be detected around
door or window frames as a double batten or
double stud is encountered.
