Turning off the Stick Reader
To turn the Stick Reader off, press and hold the green button for at least two seconds.
If the Stick Reader is left idle for 5 minutes it will turn itself off to conserve battery
power.
Same EID number in this group
If the stick reader picks up exactly the same tag number in this group, it briefly displays
the message ‘Already saved’ on the screen, gives a single red flash on the light ring
and gives a short audible tone to indicate that this is a re-read of a tag already stored.
The second ‘read’ is not stored and the count is not increased. This situation typically
occurs when you accidentally read the same animal in a pen twice.
Same tag number in a different group
If the stick reader picks up a tag number already recorded in another group, this will
be treated as ‘EID Device found’.
