10. For Added Convenience 

 

Registering frequently inspected models (

"

10.1 

Model Memory Function

"

)

 

It is possible to register up to 30 models for each type 
of trap. This can be used to add new traps for 
inspection to the data sent from the PC. It is 
convenient for adding new traps for inspection without 
the need to enter trap codes. 

 

Finding trap codes (

"

10.2 Model Search 

Function

"

)

 

This function is used to search for and display the trap model name by trap type and 
manufacturer. This is helpful when adding new traps for inspection at the worksite and 
adding traps with the model memory function. 

 

Conserving battery power (

"

10.3 Auto Power OFF Function

"

)

 

The power can be set to go off automatically if a period of five minutes elapses without 
any operation being performed. This helps to prevent the power from being left on, 
exhausting the battery. 

 

10.1 Model Memory Function 

Up to 30 model names and codes may be registered for each trap type. Registered model 
names can be displayed in sequence by pressing the MODEL key for that type. 

1.  When the control number is currently displayed (and the 

cursor is not blinking) 
Press the MODEL key for the model you wish to 

enter ( 

OTHERS

TEMP.

ADJ

FLOAT

THERMO BUCKET

DISC

Generic names registered for number 00 will be 
displayed for each model. These sample names 
cannot be changed. 

2.  Using the same MODEL key, or 

 or 

change the registration number to the desired 
number. If a model name has previously been 
registered for that number, that name will appear. 

3.  Use the numeric keys to enter the 4-digit code for the 

model name you wish to register if you have it 
available (accessible in TrapManager

 

Software from the Reports Menu and from 

individual trap information screens). To find the Model, you may press 

INFO

 and use 

the model search function to register the model name.  

4.  Repeat steps 2 and 3 if you wish to register model names for other numbers. 

5.  Pressing 

ENT

 registers the model name to the registration number displayed and also 

registers it to the control number displayed.
