Operating
Instructions:
Hold the Lumber or Security Wizard at least 24" from any metal, and
press the on/off button located on top of the handle. For activation the
unit must be held at least 24" from any metal. Using the adjustment
knob in front of the handle, adjust until the point where the sound stops.
The “on” light will flash to indicate the unit is on and ready
to use. Test the unit by passing the Wizard over a a small, visible piece
of metal. An alert should sound. This is the "working point”
of the unit.
The adjustment knob is used to set the working point of the Security Wizard.
This allows you to compensate for differences in temperature and humidity,
which can affect readings. During extended operation, use the adjustment
knob to change the working point as needed.
Coarse Adjustment:
If you are unable to find the working point (the point at which the tone
just stops) using the adjustment knob alone, or if your Wizard continuously
beeps, the unit may need a coarse tuning adjustment. To adjust the coarse
tuning turn the unit on with the adjustment knob turned about half way.
While holding the unit away from any metal, use a small screwdriver to
turn the adjustment screw (figure 3), located on top of the unit just
above the adjustment knob. Turn the screw to the point where the tone
stops. Then, each time you use the unit, set the working point using the
adjustment knob, as per the normal use instructions above.
Detecting Metal:
For best detection sweep the Lumber or Security Wizard in an up and down
pattern at least 1/2" from the surface to be scanned. The detector
coil area is the last 7” of the unit farthest from the handle. When
passed over metal objects the unit will make a high pitched tone (if Audio
Alert is turned on), or vibrate (if the Vibration Alert is turned on),
and a red LED will also glow. The pitch will increase as you move the
unit closer to metal. To pinpoint the exact location of metal sweep the
Lumber or Security Wizard slowly until a continuous tone is heard.
Alerts:
The Vibration Alert and Audio Alerts can be turned on (button depressed)
or off (button raised) independently using the buttons in front of the
on/off switch. Battery life is extended by turning off the Vibration Alert.
When scanning is complete, press the “On/Off” button to turn
the unit off.
Headphone Jack: (Security Wizard Only)
The Security Wizard also includes an earphone jack on the left side of
the handle. Use an earphone or headphone with a standard 3/32” mono
submini plug. The earphone works even when Audio and Vibration alerts
are turned off. (Earphone / headphone not included)

Loading/Changing the Battery:
The battery compartment is located at the end of the handle. To open the

or a coin in the groove at the base of the cover. Slide the tray completely
out of the handle. Place a nine volt alkaline battery in the tray, with
the battery terminals protruding through the slots in the end of the tray
(figure 1). The negative battery terminal protrudes through the larger
slot, the positive through the smaller slot. Slide the tray back into
the handle until it snaps into place (figure 2).
