Trap Test Mode

Firmware requirement: v565 or later

A safe, audio-only demo of your trap's detection pipeline — no door movement.

---

Before You Start

Confirm all four before running Trap Test:

1. Trap door is open

2. Trap is unarmed

3. Trap is clear of obstructions

4. Open the back pod door so the beeps can be clearly heard

Finding Trap Test Button

From your trap, tap Settings → More Settings → Trap Test button at the top of the settings page.

What the Button Does

Tapping Trap Test sends a test command to your device. The trap enters a safe demo mode — audio feedback only, no door movement. There is no visible response in the app; listen for audio from the trap to confirm the test is running.

Running the Test

Wave your hand (or any object) toward the sensor. You'll hear the trap react through four phases:

Phase	What You Hear	What It Means
Waiting	Silent	Ready — move something toward the sensor
Detecting	Beeps, speeding up	Object seen within ~39 in (1000 mm)
Verified	Confirmation cue	Reading is stable — move into the capture zone
Capture!	Solid 3-second tone	Crossed the trigger distance — door would close in real mode
