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 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 Drawing 2 Best Read Orientation 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.

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. 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 limit the range of operation of the system. If you are experiencing reduced operating range of your system, check for metal tabletops, doors, etc. in proximity (a few inches) to any part of the chip/reader environment. Chip orientation plays a major role in optimum performance of the reader and reading distances.
