==History==
Created by Commerce Guild Manufacturers, this droid was originally built to root out miners who refused to pay the trade conglomerate's tariffs. Available commercially for many years before the Battle of Geonosis, it was used in holographic training simulators for clone troopers on Kamino, but was not manufactured in large numbers until some time after the mobilization of the droid armies due to cost overruns.
