Pest Connect Overview Pest Connect is a system that enables remote monitoring of devices. Data from sensors is sent to a Connect Control Panel which establishes a secure connection to a central server where the data is passed to the Rentokil Systems. Typical sensors that are used in the Pest Connect system are the Connect Radar mouse trap and the Dual AutoGate Connect, shown below in Figure 1.
Product Description Dual AutoGate Connect is a battery powered unit that has been designed to detect rats and mice and provides a barrier between the entry section of a bait box and the bait section. Dual AutoGate Connect units have two sets of infrared emitters which continuously pulse light, and are reflected off the rodent's fur, bouncing back to the infrared detectors.

User Interface Pressing the push button will activate the display and then successive presses will move the LED to the next position. The display items are shown below. Days since Gate was Opened – represents the number of days since the gate was first opened. This corresponds to the number of days since the rodents could have been exposed to the bait. Number of Activations since gate was armed – represents the count of the number of times that a rat has been in the bait box.
Installing a Dual AutoGate Open the bait box that you wish to install the Dual AutoGate in. With the “External LED” on the Dual AutoGate on the right hand side, insert the Dual AutoGate into place such that the door is in the middle of the bait box and the support arms are either side of the walls as shown below. Accessory Bait Tray 304978 shown fitted to FB155 Bait Box to support US Market on Left.
Installing the Dual AutoGate and Technician reset of the Dual AutoGate Push the button to scroll through the menu in order to set the Dual AutoGate. The Dual AutoGate is only successfully set when the indicator is displayed. When the “Technician Setup” is selected then the door will move up/down/up to test the motor and door sensors. If there is an error then E4 will be displayed on the display.
Checking the Dual AutoGate When the Dual AutoGate is visited there are two options to check the functions: Checking without resetting the Dual AutoGate: If the Dual AutoGate is open when visited then it is possible to verify the number of days that the gate has been open, the number of rodent visits, battery percentage by pressing the button. The LED will also be lit (see below) in the case that the Dual AutoGate is armed and in that case the full technician reset is not required.
Changing the Battery Alkaline batteries should be disposed of in accordance with local, national or state regulations, or recycled where such facilities exist. It is recommended that battery packs are replaced every 12 months, irrespective of use, to ensure that they are fit for purpose. Exhausted batteries are to be removed from the Dual AutoGate and disposed of as above.
Operating Modes Sensing Modes: Rats only mode: (Factory setting) In this mode only the top sensors are active and so the gate will only open if these sensors detect rats. The number of triggers can be seen on the display and it should be noted that the number of “mouse” triggers will always be 0 in this mode. Rats and Mice Mode: In this mode the lower sensors are active and if there is a detection then the upper sensors are checked to verify whether it was a Rat that triggered the sensors.
Advanced Settings Depending on customer or country requirements it may be necessary to turn on/off or reduce the intensity of the external LED to avoid unwanted attention or to adjust the number of days that the gate remains open before closing again. Adjusting the Sensing Mode Selection of “Rat and Mice” mode Selection of “Rat only” mode The sensing mode can be set to “Rats only” or “Rats and Mice”: 1. While there is nothing on the digit display press and hold the button 2.
