Tap Detector with Sonar

Bug Pinger has 3 functions. Detect Mode, Radio Mode and Pinger Mode.
Last one, Pinger Mode works just like a sonar used by submarines.
Pinger Mode calculates the distance between you and a bug.

Detect Mode
Detect Mode searches for radio transmitters and detects suspicious signals and their strenght

Radio Mode
By using this function, you can receive frequencies between 28 MHz-2000MHz, hearing them by earrphones and,checking them one by one, you will be able to find the one you are looking for.(see description below)

Pinger Mode
Pinger Mode works just like a sonar (Sound Navigation Ranging). Bug Pinger gives off clacking sound. And bug-A picks up this sound. Bug Pinger receives the radio wave from the bug-A. This is the cycle. Bug Pinger calculates the distance between you and the bug-A on the basis of time the cycle takes.

SEARCHING FOR ROOM TRANSMITTERS

A-1 DETECT MODE
1.Load batteries to battery compartment on the back (AA x 4pcs) and attach an antenna to Bug Pinger . Extend the antenna to full length. plug a earphone into the earphone jack 2.Turn on Power/Volume switch and set the switch to 4. Now Detect Mode is set . Once Bug Pinger receives any suspicious radio wave, it indicates it by LED signal meter and alarm sound.

A-2 RADIO MODE
1.Turn on mode switch and set the mode switch to 4 to 6. Play BGM by CD player or MD player. It helps you while you are serching.
2.Push radio mode button once. Now it starts scan the airwaves searching for radio transmissions.
Bug Pinger stops scanning every time it receives suspicious radio transmissions.
Check if you can hear your voice or the BGM you played in advance. If you can not hear it through the earphone, then push radio mode button again. Bug Pinger starts searching again. If there's a bug in your room, then you can hear your own voice or the BGM through the earphone.

A-3 PINGER MODE
1.Unplug the earphones.
2.Make sure you are receiving radio wave from a bug (If your room is bugged, your voice or music can be heard from speaker or earphone). Push pinger mode button.
Bug Pinger starts giving off sharp clacking sounds.
3.Aim the speaker outward and walk aroud the area: Bug Pinger will react while you are serching by DETECT MODE. Now check LED signal meter. Getting nearer to the bug, the more LEDs light up. If every LED lights up, the distance between you and the bug is 50 to 80cm.

SEARCHING FOR TELEPHONE TRANSMITTERS

1. Attach earphone to earphone jack. 2.lift up the receiver of telephone and call an answering device or information service.
2. Enter radio mode (Continue same procedure of A-2). If you can hear your own voice or the answering device you called in advance from earphone, there's the possibility of bugging. Enter pinger mode (Continue same procedure of A-3).
