More Settings Overview

Below is a description of each available setting in the trap settings panel. These settings control power behavior, notifications, camera behavior, and hardware features.

Note: After changing any settings, a reboot of the trap is recommended to ensure all changes are applied correctly.


Battery Type

Selects the battery configuration installed in the trap. This setting is used to improve battery level estimation, charging behavior, and low battery alerts. Always match this setting to the actual battery installed.


Accessory

Enables or disables the accessory port on the trap. When enabled, the accessory port can power external devices such as dispensers or add-on hardware.


Accessory Timing

Controls how long the accessory port remains powered when activated. Shorter durations reduce power consumption, while longer durations may be required for certain accessories.


User Beeps

Enables or disables audible beeps from the trap hardware. Beeps are typically used for user feedback during actions such as button presses, state changes, or troubleshooting.


Enhanced Door Closing

Enables an enhanced door close and re-lock sequence. When enabled, the trap will perform an additional open and close cycle to help ensure the door is fully closed and locked.


Camera Time Lapse

Sets how often the camera captures periodic photos while the trap is armed. More frequent photos provide better visibility but increase power and data usage.


Camera Quality

Controls the image quality of photos taken by the trap camera. Higher quality images improve clarity but increase capture time, data usage, and power consumption.


Rotate Image

Adjusts the orientation of captured images. This is useful if the trap is mounted in a non-standard orientation.


Dark Lux Threshold

Defines the ambient light level at which the system considers the environment to be dark. This threshold is used to determine when infrared lighting should be activated.


Minimum IR Brightness

Sets the minimum brightness level for the infrared LEDs. This ensures a baseline level of illumination in dark environments.


Maximum IR Brightness

Sets the maximum brightness level for the infrared LEDs. Limiting the maximum brightness can help reduce glare, reflections, and power usage.


Battery Alerts

Enables or disables low battery alerts. When enabled, the system will notify users when the battery voltage drops below a defined threshold.


Pre-Capture Alerts

Enables or disables alerts that occur before a capture event. These alerts can provide early notification of activity near or inside the trap.


GPS Interval

Sets how often the trap updates its GPS location. Shorter intervals provide more frequent location updates but increase power consumption.


Location

Enables or disables periodic location logging. When enabled, the trap logs its location at regular intervals for tracking and history purposes.
