@Atitarev I guessed here on the past pasv part; ruwikt doesn't have it because it lists the verb as intrans. Benwing2 (talk) 02:32, 18 February 2016 (UTC)Reply

It's imperfective and mostly intransitive in modern Russian. The passive forms only apply to the dated sense. Etymologically "срабо́танный" is derived from pf "сработать", would apply here only if we "borrow". Perhaps we should stick to the approach of not borrowing, to make it less confusing. --Anatoli T.
