- Login App.

- Select site.
- Select the trap.
- The “Trap Status” menu appears. When the trap is open and the magnet is correctly mounted, the trap status will report “Trap Ready” and a percentage number in green (greater than 125%) will show. If a yellow percentage number is displayed, the magnet is not close enough to the small hole in the bracket. Move the magnet closer to the bracket.
- When the trap is closed, trap status is “Trap activated” and a percentage number in red (less than 80%) will show. If the percentage number is yellow, move the magnet, so that it is farther away from the CatchAlive box, when the trap is closed.
The distance between the magnet and the small hole in the bracket must be less than 10mm.
