Note 12 - Once activated, the reader will remain activated for 30 seconds.
This is the default value and can be configured from 1 second to 255
seconds, or to “Always On”. These changes are achieved using Allflex
Configurator© software.
Reading eartags
When a tag is successfully read, the tag's ID code information appears on the LCD
readout. For “non-duplicate” tag readings, the tag counter will be incremented and
the ID code is automatically stored in the Stick Reader's internal memory.
Tag numbers that are read as duplicates are not stored in memory and the counter is
not incremented. This means if you scan a tag twice within the Duplicate Search
Limit of 100 scans, it will be stored originally but not the second time. If you scan the
same tag twice outside the Duplicate Search Limit of 100 tags, the number will be
stored twice and the counter will be incremented for both scans.
The Stick Reader's green LED indicator flashes and the buzzer will sound for every
scan. A single flash/beep occurs the first time a tag is read and a double flash/beep
indication occurs for duplicate tag reading.
Every time a tag is scanned, according the Stick Reader configuration (send repeats,
do not send repeats or send upon re-read), the number can be transmitted or not out of
the serial data cable / Bluetooth® ports if it is a duplicate.
Using the function menu
A menu is available on the Stick Reader that groups together 4 functions. These four
functions are used:
• To reset the tag counter to zero.
• To create a New Animal Grouping (“New Animal Group” Field - a line of
zeros – 000000000000).
• To reset the Stick Reader configuration (Factory Settings).
• To enable Bluetooth®.
