VEMCO – VR100 Manual 28 May 2018 75
7.1.2 Where do I find the Code Space?
A complete VEMCO Tag ID consists of two distinct parts. It is the combination of
Code Space and ID that provides all the relevant information needed to identify your
transmitter.
Code Space: A code space provides VEMCO receivers details about how a particular
tag will transmit its information so it can decode appropriately.
Code Map: Receivers are programmed with a code map that outlines all the code spaces they are able to
decode.
It is important that VEMCO customers sort and analyze their data using the complete Tag ID for a number of
reasons:
1. It allows you to correctly distinguish between animals in your data set
and/or those of other researchers, which may have the same ID # but
different code spaces.
2. If you are using VEMCO equipment with real-time capabilities (e.g.
VR2C cabled receiver), it is important to search on or parse out the
complete Tag ID in any scripting programs being used to ensure
correct tag identification.
3. Complete Tag IDs are required by our support team for any unknown
ID identification requests.
