Depth Setting Tips
If the unit is not quite detecting a stud in the current
depth mode setting, try the next higher depth
setting. I.E. when in 1/2" mode, try 1" mode.
If the unit is too sensitive, try using a lower depth
mode setting. I.E. when in 1" mode, try 1/2" mode.
Conventional Construction
Doors and windows are commonly constructed with
additional studs and headers for added stability. The
IntelliL L a a s s e e r r P P r r o o detects the edge of these double studs
™
and solid headers and emits and holds an audio signal
as it crosses over them.
Surface Differences
Wallpaper—There will be no difference in the
function of the stud sensor on surfaces covered with
wallpaper or fabric unless the coverings contain
metallic foil or fibers.
Plaster and Lath — Unless the plaster and lath is
exceptionally thick or has metal mesh in it there will be
no problem with the unit functioning properly.
Ceiling or Textured Surfaces — When dealing with a
rough surface such as a sprayed ceiling, use a piece of
cardboard when scanning the surface. Run through the
calibration technique described earlier WITH the piece of
cardboard between the stud sensor and the surface. Also,
it is particularly important in this application to remember
to keep your free hand away from the unit.
