1. Инсталација батерије: The FOLAI TH550 requires a new 9-volt battery (not included). Open the battery compartment on the back of the device and insert the 9-volt battery, ensuring correct polarity. Close the compartment securely.
2. Укључено: Притисните тастер ОН/ОФФ дугме за укључивање уређаја. ЛЦД екран ће се осветлити.
3. Почетна калибрација: Before each use, or when switching modes, hold the device flat against the scanning surface (wall, floor, or ceiling) where you intend to scan. Press and hold the СЦАН button (often integrated with the ON/OFF button or a separate side button) for 1-2 seconds until you hear a beep and the display indicates calibration is complete. This auto-calibration ensures maximum reliability and accuracy.

Оперативни режими

The FOLAI TH550 features five distinct scanning modes, each optimized for detecting specific materials and depths. Press the МОДЕ дугме за кретање кроз доступне опције:

• Stud Scan (1/2 inch): Detects wooden beams and joists in drywall up to 0.5 inches (12 mm) deep.
• Stud Scan (1 inch): Detects wooden beams and joists in drywall up to 1 inch (25 mm) deep.
• Stud Scan (1.5 inches): Detects wooden beams and joists in drywall up to 1.5 inches (38 mm) deep.
• Metal Scan: Detects metal pipes, steel bars, and other metallic objects up to 2.36 inches (60 mm) deep.
• AC Scan: Detects live unshielded AC wires (85 to 240 volts) up to 2 inches (51 mm) deep.

Упутство за рад

1. Изаберите режим: After powering on and calibrating, press the МОДЕ button to select the appropriate scanning mode for the material you wish to detect. The selected mode will be displayed on the LCD screen.
2. Скенирање: Place the device flat against the wall and slowly slide it horizontally across the surface. Maintain constant contact with the wall.
3. Interpreting Display and Audio: As the device approaches a target, the LCD display will show signal strength indicators, and an audible beep will sound. The "CENTER" indicator will appear when the device is directly over the center of the detected object.
4. Одређивање: To pinpoint the exact center and edges of a stud or other object, move the device slowly back and forth over the detected area. Mark the points where the signal begins and ends to identify the edges, and the point where the "CENTER" indicator is strongest for the center.
5. Детекција AC жице: The device continuously monitors for live AC wires in all modes. If a live AC wire is detected, a specific icon will appear on the display, and an alert will sound, helping to prevent accidental drilling into live electrical circuits.

Одржавање

• Замена батерије: When the low battery indicator appears on the LCD display, replace the 9-volt battery promptly to ensure accurate readings and optimal performance.
• Чишћење: Обришите уређај меком, сувом крпом. Не користите абразивна средства за чишћење или раствараче, јер могу оштетити цasinг или унутрашње компоненте.
• Складиштење: Store the stud finder in a cool, dry place, away from direct sunlight and extreme temperatures. If storing for extended periods, remove the battery to prevent leakage.

Решавање проблема

• Inaccurate Readings / Constant Beeping:
  • Ensure proper calibration by holding the device flat against the wall and pressing the scan button for 1-2 seconds before moving it.
  • Avoid placing the device directly over known objects during calibration.
  • The device is highly sensitive; slight movements or uneven surfaces can affect readings. Try recalibrating and scanning slowly and steadily.
  • Check for low battery. A weak battery can lead to inconsistent performance.
• Без детекције:
  • Verify that the correct scanning mode is selected for the material you are trying to detect.
  • Ensure the device is in full contact with the scanning surface.
  • Проверите ниво батерије.
  • The depth of the object might exceed the maximum detection depth of the selected mode.
• ЛЦД екран не ради:
  • Проверите батерију. Замените је ако је потребно.
  • Уверите се да је уређај укључен.
