Operation is subject to the following two conditions: 1. This device may not cause harmful interference. 2. This device must accept any interference received, including interference that may cause undesired operation. WARNING: This equipment has been tested and found to comply with the limits for a class B digital device, pursuant to part 15 of FCC Rules. These limits are designed to provide reasonable protection against harmful interference in a residential installation. This equipment generates, uses and can radiate radio frequency energy and if not installed and used in accordance with the instructions, may cause harmful interference to radio communications. However, there is no guarantee that interference will not occur in a particular installation. If this equipment does cause harmful interference to radio or television reception, which can be determined by turning the equipment off and on, the user is encouraged to try to correct the interference by one or more of the following measures:  Reorient or relocate the receiving antenna.  Increase the separation between the equipment and the receiver.  Connect the equipment into an outlet on a circuit different from that to which the receiver is connected.  Consult the dealer or an experienced radio/TV technician for help. The user is cautioned that changes and modifications made to the equipment without approval of the manufacturer could void the user's authority to operate this equipment.

WandRdr1040.sxw 05/17/04 Introduction Congratulations on the purchase of your new AVID Mini-Tracker Wand Reader. This reader is capable of reading AVID and some other brands of electronic identification tags using the FECAVA protocol. Instructions 1. Power Button Turn the reader ON by sliding the lower right hand button on the face of the reader, forward. When the reader is powered on, it will emit a double beep sound and the LCD will display AVID ID READY . To turn the reader OFF, slide the button back. 2. Read Button Press the upper right button on the reader or the red button on the wand handle to put the reader into the LOOKING mode. The LCD will display LOOKING . When a microchip is found, the reader will emit two beep tones and display the number on the LCD. If the read button is released before finding a microchip, the message NO ID FOUND will display on the LCD. 3. Reading The reader antenna is located in the round loop on the end of the wand handle. This provides communications between the microchip and the reader. While pressing down the Read button, rotate the antenna in a circular pattern while moving down the animal’s back, starting from the back of the head. Chip orientation plays a major role in optimum performance of the reader and reading distances. In the figure below, CHIP A, in a parallel orientation to the Copyright 2004 © Avid Identification Systems, Inc. 1 WandRdr1040.sxw 05/17/04 antenna, will achieve its maximum reading distance towards the center of the coil. CHIP B, in the perpendicular orientation to the antenna, will achieve its maximum read distance towards the outside edges of the antenna. It is therefore recommended to move the antenna in a circular motion so that at some point you are energizing the chip with a greater magnetic field making it easier to find the microchip The Wand Reader antenna, handle and switch are waterproof and can be completely immersed underwater as long as the reader itself is kept out of the water. 4. Battery The reader is powered by one 9 volt battery. An alkaline battery is recommended for a longer battery life. The battery is located in the battery compartment on the lower backside of the reader. To replace the battery, slide the cover straight off. To secure it, slide the cover back to it’s original position making sure the wires are securely inside the compartment. WARNING: FOLLOW BATTERY INSTRUCTIONS FOR DISPOSAL. Operating the Reader Near Metal Metal objects (especially ferrous metals) absorb electromagnetic fields. Operating the reader antenna or placing the chip too close to metal object can severely limi…
