Several integrated sensors make the StarFinder from Laserliner

to a highly effective detection tool. High functioning safety is

ensured by special warning signals.

OPERATING INSTRUCTIONS

1. Insert battery: To do so, open the battery compartment in

the back of the housing and insert a 9V battery

(E-Block/PP3/6LR61).

2. Switch on the StarFinder (button 6).

3. Select STUD-SCAN or AC-SCAN (6):

A. STUD-SCAN: For electronically detecting studs and joists in

dry walls (plaster fibreboard, wooden panels and other

non-metallic panelling). Use the SET button (4) to adjust

the measuring depth.

B. AC-SCAN: For localising live wires directly beneath the pla-

ster or behind wooden panels and other non-metallic

panelling. It is not possible to detect live wires in dry walls

with metal studs.

4. Measuring in STUD-SCAN mode

• Select STUD-SCAN (button 6). Select “Normal” (SET button).

This setting is ideal for plaster fibreboard panels installed in

one thickness (max. 2 cm).

• Select “Deep” (SET button) for two plaster fibreboard

panels installed on top of each other (max. 4 cm).

OFF:

Switch 4+6 together

• Select “Super-Deep” (SET button) for thick wooden panels

and floor constructions (parquet etc.), max. measuring

depth 6 cm.

• Place the tool against the wall.

•LED CAL (3) flashes: Press the calibration button (7) and

wait until calibration is completed. CAL OK: LED CAL (3)

lights permanently.

•Move the tool slowly across the surface.

IMPORTANT: The device must be in contact with the wall all

the time while measuring in StudScan-Mode. AC-Mode see

next page.

Tip 1: The position between the two markings is the mid-

point of the stud.

Tip 2: The position where you start is important: First place

the tool in a position where you know there is no stud.

Otherwise, the LED CAL (3) will blink. To verify: Move

the tool to another position a few centimetres away

and start measuring again.

Tip 3: The maximum display does not light up, even though

the LE display shows a reading. As soon as the most

intense display appears, the tool is over the edge of the

stud. Mark this point. Alternatively, increase the measu-

ring depth (SET button).

Tip 4: To avoid interference while scanning, keep your free

hand and other objects at least 15 cm away from the

StarFinder.

Tip 5: The StarFinder will only find the outside edge of double

studs and headers which may be fitted around doors,

windows and corners.

ENGLISH8

Then scan for the

other edge of the

stud.

Slide the tool sideways across the wall.

When the maximum display appears, you

have reached the edge of the stud.

Tip 6: Ensure that you have really detected a stud. To do so,

check on both sides whether other studs are present at

equal distances, usually at 30, 40 or 60 cm. Also check

that it is a stud by scanning at several places directly

above and below the position of the first find.

Tip 7: Textured ceilings: The ceiling must be covered with

cardboard to protect it. In this case, use the DeepScan

function.

CAUTION: If electric wires or metal or plastic pipes are

located near or in contact with a plaster fibreboard panel,

they may be identified by the StarFinder as studs. Always

switch off the power supply when working near electric wires.

SPECIAL THINGS TO NOTE WITH VARIOUS MATERIALS

It may not be possible to detect wooden studs or joists

through the following materials:

• Ceramic floor tiles

• Fitted carpeting with padded backing

• Wallpaper with metal fibres or metal foil

• Freshly painted, damp walls. These must have dried for at

least one week.

5. AC-SCAN

The StarFinder is able to detect the electrical fields of live

wires.

• Select AC-SCAN (button 6).

• Hold the tool in the air so that it is pointing away from any

live wires.

•LED CAL (3) flashes: Press the calibration button (7) and

wait until calibration is completed. CAL OK: LED CAL (3)

lights permanently.

•Move the tool slowly across the surface. Please refer also

Tip 1 on next page.

StarFinder

ENGLISH 9

CAUTION: Wires which are at a depth of more than 4 cm

may not be detected. Always switch off the power supply

when working near electric wires.

Tip 1: Depending on surface material electro-static

interference may occur when moving unit, LED’s will

light up. In this case move tool slowly over the wall

without touching surface.

Tip 2: Because of static charges, electric fields may be

detected at the side of the actual position of the wire.

To carry away these charges, lay your free hand on the

wall.

Tip 3: If you suspect that wires must be present but cannot

find any, this may be because they are shielded in

conduits. Use STUDSCAN in order to check the near

area.

Tip 4: The position where you start is important: To achieve

maximum sensitivity, start by placing the device in a

position which is known not to be near live wires.

Tip 5: With the Set Button (4) the sensivity can be adjusted.

The highest sensivity (max. 4 cm) can be found the the

mode "Super"-Deep.

Subject to technical alterations.
