USER MANUAL CenterScanner Plus Laserliner

Function/Application The CenterScanner Plus is a system which consists of transmitter and receiver for reliably determining the entry and exit points of holes in walls and ceilings up to a wall thickness of 150 cm. With clearly visible LED indicators and acoustic signals, the device enables precise location of entry and exit positions and additionally features easily accessible marking aids in the receiver and transmitter. The integrated LC display shows the signal radius of up to 200 cm. The transmitter TX features integrated metaland voltage detection to prevent misplaced holes. General safety instructions – The device must only be used in accordance with its intendedpurpose and within the scope of the specications. – The measuring tools and accessories are not toys. Keep out of reach of children. – Modications or changes to the device are not permitted, this will otherwise invalidate the approval and safety specications. – Do not expose the device to mechanical stress, extreme temperatures, moisture or signicant vibration. – Fixing with special adhesive or adhesive strips does not provide a 100% secure grip. Always keep the danger area clear. – Before taking any measurements, make sure that both the area to be tested (e.g. a line), the test device and the accessories used (e.g. connection cable) are in proper working order. Test the device by connecting it to known voltage sources (e.g. a 230 V socket in the case of AC testing). – The device must no longer be used if one or more of its functions fail or the battery charge is weak. – Observe the safety precautions of local and national authorities relating to the correct use of the device and any prescribed safety equipment (e.g. electrician‘s safety gloves). – Do not work alone in the vicinity of hazardous electrical installations and only under the guidance of a qualied electrician. – The measuring device must not be used as a substitute for a two-pole zero potential test. Additional information on use Observe the technical safety regulations for working in the vicinity of electrical systems, especially:

1. Safely isolating from power supply, 2. Securing to prevent system being switched on again,

3. Checking zero potential, two-pole, 4. Earthing and short-circuiting, 5. Securing and covering

adjacent live components. Safety instructions Dealing with electromagnetic radiation – Local operating restrictions – for example, in hospitals, aircraft, petrol stations or in the vicinity of people with pacemakers – may apply. Electronic devices can potentially cause hazards or interference or be subject to hazards or interference. – The measuring accuracy may be affected when working close to high voltages or high electromagnetic alternating elds. – Precautions: Do not use any other CenterScanner Plus within a distance of 10 m. Do not use any electronic transmitters or electric motors in the vicinity. ENCenterScanner Plus

Safety instructions Dealing with RF radiation – The measuring device is equipped with a wireless interface. – The measuring device complies with electromagnetic compatibility regulations and limit values in accordance with RED Directive 2014/53/EU. – Umarex GmbH & Co. KG hereby declares that the CenterScanner Plus radio equipment complies with the essential requirements and other provisions of the European Radio Equipment Directive 2014/53/EU (RED).

1. With special adhesive on the back, securely position the transmitter TX at the required drilling point

on the wall or ceiling (see Fig. a).

2. Switch on transmitter TX and receiver RECV.

3. Move the receiver RECV on the other side of the wall/ceiling (see Fig. b). With red arrows,

the positioning LEDs (7) show the direction of movement. Green squares show that the positions of the transmitter TX and receiver RECV are aligned.

4. Positioning is correct when the four green squares light. After marking the drilling point (see Fig. c),

remove the devices from the wall/ceiling and drill the hole. Remove the devices from the wall/ceiling before drilling. Drilling through the marking aid aperture is at your own risk.

To determine drilling depth >150 cm The positioning LEDs (7) are suitable for determining drilling depths of up to 150 cm. At depths >150 cm, the drilling point can be set by determining the minimum drilling depth with the aid of the LC display (9). To do so, move the receiver over the wall on the X and Y axis and mark the positions on reaching the minimum drilling depth shown on the display from all four directions (right, left, top, bottom to imaginary centre point). The four markers are on a coordinate cross (X/Y-axis) with its centre point corresponding to the required drilling position. Transmitter TX ENCenterScanner Plus

1. Switch on device and slowly move it over the surface (see Fig. d). The LED indicators (2) show

if there is metal close by. Mark the spot when all indicators are on.

2. Repeat step 1 (see Fig. e).

The tool is able to detect hidden metal in all non-metallic materials, e.g. brick, concrete, screed, wood, plaster breboard, gas concrete, ceramic and mineral building materials.

Voltage detection Switch on device and slowly move it over the surface (see Fig. f). The LED indicators (3) show if there is a live cable close by. For localising live wires directly beneath the plaster or behind wooden panels and other non- metallic panelling. It is not possible to detect live wires in dry walls with metal studs. Offset measurement

1. Move the transmitter TX in an area where there is no metal and measure the distance from

the transmitter TX to the required drilling point (see Fig. g).

2. Determine the position of the transmitter TX with the receiver RECV on the other side (see Fig. h).

3. Transfer the measured distance (step 1) in the direction of the required drilling point (see Fig. i).

1. Place a wedge under the transmitter TX and under the receiver RECV and make sure that the centre

line of both devices points in the direction of the required drilling point (see Fig. l).

2. Drill the hole (see Fig. m).

If accurate positioning and alignment are not possible, for example when drilling in corners, the device can be aligned using two identical wedge-shaped supports. The angles of the wedges must match the required drilling angle. Different wedge angles can result in misplaced holes. Always use identical wedges.

Information on maintenance and care Clean all components with a damp cloth and do not use cleaning agents, scouring agents and solvents. Remove the battery(ies) before storing for longer periods. Store the device in a clean and dry place.

Multipoint measurement

1. Mark at least two, preferably four, reference points at precisely the same distance from the intended

drilling point (see Fig. j).

2. The corrected drilling point is located at the geometric centre point of the reference points (see Fig. k).

Operation in increased tolerance mode slightly reduces the accuracy of drilling point positioning.

Tip: Interference caused by metal can prevent the drilling point being located. In these rare cases, the four square LED indicators will not light up at any point. The tolerance of the receiver RECV can be increased by briey pressing the ON/OFF button (11). The setting is conrmed by a longer acoustic signal. The device reverts to normal operating mode by pressing the ON/OFF button (11) again or switching off the device. ENCenterScanner Plus
