possible to sort during a mothering session.

Auto increment VID numbers in a session
The automa c increment of VID numbers in a session is used to
assign sequen al visual ID numbers to animals that are being
scanned for the fi rst me. To use automa c increment, manually
enter the VID of the fi rst animal in the usual manner (ref xxxx).
Provided that this VID ends with a numeric value, the next animal
scanned will be assigned the next free VID value in the sequence.
For example; The fi rst animal is scanned and the tag number is
manually entered “TAG001”. When the next animal is scanned, the
reader will automa cally assign the next tag number, “TAG002”,
without any manual entry.
See Enter a VID manually (p. 12) for more details.
