THE SYSTEM AT WORK
The system is in Automatic mode at power-up. Photo 1a is the message for
normal operation when no traps are triggered. Photo 1b depicts a situation when
a trap trigger is signaled immediately.
The system supports up to 20 trap memories. Trap IDs can range from 0 to 127. If more than one trap triggers, their respective messages scroll automatically every few seconds. Press Clear to reset the message. The system checks if a trap gets lost (no signal is received for more than 6 h), as well as if its battery is exhausted (see Photo 1c). To select Manual mode, press the Forward or Back keys in order to browse trap messages (see Photo 1d). In Manual mode, you can check data for all of the 20 trap memories, including those still free (see Photo 1e).
The Setup key enters Setup mode. To add a new trap, search for free memory and press Rearm on the trap itself. Its ID will appear immediately on the screen.
Press Store to assign it to the memory currently selected (see Photo 1f). Press the Clear button to delete a trap and free its nonvolatile memory. A trap’s Rearm key also serves as reset after a trigger is detected and the trap is emptied. The Setup key on the transmitter changes the trap ID, scrolling IDs from zero to 127. You can check the new ID on the screen because it is immediately transmitted with each key press.
