Operating Instructions - Scanning in Normal Mode
Select NORMAL and place StudVision® Pro stud finder against the wall (Figure 4).
Press and hold the ON/OFF switch. Slide tool slowly across the wall.
As the tool starts to approach a stud, it will begin to display bars representing the
stud behind the wall.
Continue moving across the stud. When StudVision® Pro stud finder is over the
center of a stud or stud grouping, the center bar on the LCD will become
highlighted, the SpotLite® Pointing System light will appear on the wall, and a
tone will sound.
At this point if the tool determines that this is more than a single
stud, the display will switch to show a wider stud.
Mark this center point (Figure 5).
Operating Instructions - Scanning in Extreme Precision
Select EXTREME PRECISION and place against wall. Press and
hold ON/OFF switch in.
Slide SLOWLY horizontally without lifting or rocking the StudVision®
Pro unit. The word SCAN will be at the bottom of the LCD to indicate
that StudVision® Pro stud finder must first scan over a stud before it
will accurately locate the center. Because of the extreme sensitivity,
this must be done more slowly than regular stud scanning.
A single bar will appear on the LCD to show where the stud is in
relation to the unit (see Figure 6). Move the unit to get this single bar to the center of the display so
that the SpotLite® appears, indicating that the tool is centered over the stud and mark that center
point.
Flashing Display! Error indicator
StudVision® Pro device finds dense objects beneath the wall surface. The position where you start
is important. To work properly, the tool must start (by holding the button in) over a part of the wall
that is not dense. Otherwise, an error is indicated. If LCD starts blinking and unit beeping, move
over a few inches and start again.
