5.2. Calibration voalohany
Before each use, or when switching detection modes, it is recommended to perform an automatic calibration.
- Place the device flat against the surface you intend to scan, ensuring no objects are directly beneath it.
- Tsindrio ary hazòny ny kal button until the calibration process is complete (indicated on the LCD).
- The device is now ready for use in the selected mode.
6. Torolàlana miasa
6.1. Famelomana/Famonoana ary Fifantenana Mode
Mba hampandeha ny fitaovana dia tsindrio ny Mode button. To switch between detection modes (Wood/Stud, Metal, AC), press the Mode button repeatedly until the desired mode is displayed on the LCD.
6.2. Detection Modes and Depths
The MultiFinder Plus offers three primary detection modes:
- Stud-Scan (Wood): Detects wooden studs and beams.
- Detection Depth: Approximately 2 cm to 4 cm.
- Metal-Scan: Detects ferrous and non-ferrous metals, including copper, steel, and iron. This mode can also detect non-live cables under plaster.
- Detection Depth: Up to 10 cm.
- AC-Scan: Detects live electrical wires (110V-230V).
- Detection Depth: Approximately 4 cm to 5 cm.
Image: A visual diagram illustrating the approximate detection depths for different scan modes: Stud-Scan (2-4 cm), AC-Scan (4-5 cm for 110-230 Volt wires), and Metal-Scan (up to 10 cm).
6.3. Scanning Procedure
- Select the appropriate detection mode using the Mode bokotra.
- Perform automatic calibration by pressing the kal button while the device is flat against the surface.
- Slowly move the device horizontally across the surface. Maintain constant contact and pressure.
- Observe the LCD display for signal strength indicators and the 'MOVE' arrows, which guide you towards the center of the detected object.
- When an object is detected, the device will emit an acoustic signal, and the optical display will show a strong signal. For live wires, the red warning light will also illuminate.
- Mark the location of the detected object. For precise localization, scan the area from multiple directions.
6.4. Acoustic and Optical Signals
The MultiFinder Plus provides clear feedback:
- Famantarana Akostika: A beeping sound indicates the presence of a detected object. The frequency or intensity may change as you get closer to the object.
- Optical fampisehoana: The LCD screen shows a bar graph indicating signal strength. The higher the bars, the closer you are to the object.
- Jiro fampitandremana mena: Illuminates when live electrical wires are detected, providing an immediate visual alert.
7. Fikojakojana sy fikarakarana
- Fanadiovana: Fafao ny fitaovana amin'ny malefaka, damp lamba. Aza mampiasa mpanadio abrasive na solvents.
- fitahirizana: Store the device in a dry, dust-free environment, away from direct sunlight and extreme temperatures (-20 °C to 70 °C).
- Batterie: Esory ny bateria raha tsy hampiasaina mandritra ny fotoana maharitra ny fitaovana mba hisorohana ny fivoahan'ny rano.

8. Famahana olana
| OLANA | Antony mety hitranga | vahaolana |
|---|---|---|
| Inaccurate readings / False positives | Improper calibration; high humidity; presence of other electronic devices nearby; user error (e.g., not holding flat). | Re-calibrate the device on a clear section of the wall. Ensure the device is held flat against the surface. Move away from other electronics. |
| Tsy mandeha ny fitaovana | Batterie maty na tsy napetraka tsara. | Check battery polarity. Replace with a new 9V alkaline battery. |
| Weak or no signal detection | Object too deep; incorrect mode selected; battery low. | Ensure the correct mode is selected for the target material. Check battery level. Note maximum detection depths for each mode. |
| Beep tsy tapaka | Device is picking up ambient interference or needs re-calibration. | Move to a different area and re-calibrate. Ensure no hands or other objects are near the sensor area during calibration. |
