Trigger Logic (see Section 4, "Trigger Logic™") is
a method that allows the user to view and select
all available mode settings in order to customise
a probe to suit a specific application. Trigger
Logic is activated by battery insertion and uses
a sequence of stylus deflections (triggering) to
systematically lead the user through the available
choices to allow selection of the required mode
options.
A Trigger Logic app is available that simplifies this
process with clear, interactive instructions and
informative videos and is available for download
on the following app stores.

Current probe settings can be reviewed by
simply removing the batteries for a minimum of
five seconds, and then replacing them to activate
the Trigger Logic review sequence.

Probe modes

The RMP400 probe can be in one of three modes:
Standby mode – Probe is waiting for a switch-on
signal.
NOTE: The RMP400 will enter hibernation mode
should the system interface be powered off or
out of range for a period of 30 seconds (only
applicable to "radio on" mode).
Operational mode – When activated by one of
the switch-on methods, the probe is switched on
and ready for use.
Configuration mode – Ready to change the
probe settings using Trigger Logic.
