Quick Start Guide
English
Installing the Antenna Panel
The TWR-1 has an internal reader, that when connected to a Gallagher Antenna
panel will capture the Electronic ID tag data.
To weigh animals in a crush, you will need:
•
Gallagher Antenna Panel kit
•
4m Antenna Extension Cable G05600 or
6m Antenna Extension Cable G05602
Note:
A short adapter cable G05601 may be required on early versions of the
Sheep Auto Drafter made prior to 2018.
To mount your Antenna panel, refer to the instructions included with the panel.
Important:
Use the defined mounting holes, because drilling through the
Antenna Panel will damage the antenna.

1.
Ensure the TWR-1 is turned OFF.
