Setting up the Draft List
The Draft List is created on the computer and copied to the Weigh Scale using
APS. Refer to the APS User Manual for instructions on creating the Draft List
and copying it to the Weigh Scale.
When a Draft List is copied to the Weigh Scale it replaces any Draft List that
already exists on the Weigh Scale.
After you have completed your Draft List session you can copy the Draft List back
to the computer for analysis or to update data in your farm management
software program.
Drafting groups and drafting gates: At the time you prepare a Draft List in APS,
you do not need to know which of the drafter's gates will be available for your
purpose. When you prepare the list, you simply assign animals to groups.
After you copy the Draft List to the Weigh Scale, you decide which drafting group
will pass through which drafter gate.
Outsiders: Outsiders are animals which:

are not on the list;

have no group number assigned to them in the list; or

have no Electronic ID.
If an outsider passes through the drafter, the Weigh Scale assigns the animal to a
special group called
Others
. When you select a Draft List session, the Weigh
Scale gives you the opportunity to assign a drafter gate specifically to the
Others
group.
Notes :

If you draft by list without weighing, you cannot draft animals that are not
wearing Electronic ID tags. If you encounter such an animal, plan on
having to manually shift it out of the drafter.

If you are weighing as you draft by list and you encounter an animal not
wearing an Electronic ID tag, the Weigh Scale will draft the animal through
the gate you assigned to the Others group. In this case, as the Weigh Scale
cannot record an Electronic ID, you should add additional animal
information, at least the animal's Visual Tag Number.

If your Draft List contains more than 600 animals, an additional
"SEARCHING" screen displays during drafting while the Weigh Scale locates
the required records.

Drafting can be turned off at any time by pressing the F3 soft key.
