Using Visual Tag Numbers
Use the keypad to enter the Visual Tag Number.
If an incorrect Visual Tag Number is entered, press to
delete each incorrect character. Re-enter the correct tag
number.
Up to seven characters, alphabetic or numeric, can be entered.
The Visual Tag Number can be entered at any time before or
while the animal is on the platform.
When the Visual Tag Number is entered, the date and any
note entered the last time the animal was weighed will be
displayed on the screen.
•
Using an Electronic ID
Scan the animal's Electronic ID.
The Electronic ID can be scanned at any time before or while
the animal is on the platform.
If you are using Electronic ID numbers only, the last 4 digits
of the tag number preceded by a colon will display on screen.
If you entered a Visual Tag Number the first time the
Electronic ID was scanned, the Visual Tag Number will
display on screen.
If this is the first time you have scanned the Electronic ID and
you want to enter an associated Visual Tag Number, you can
enter it now. In future, each time you scan the Electronic ID
the Visual Tag Number you entered will display on screen.
Refer to
Using Electronic IDs
