Aleis ISO-6000 Series Operational Manual Aleis ISO-6000 Series Race System Page 7 of 13 3.0 PREPARATION FOR USE When you have mounted your Aleis ISO-6000 Series Race Reader, and you are ready to use it, please ensure the following steps are closely followed: • When inserting or attaching a new electronic RFID device into or on an animal, keep all other electronic RFID devices a minimum of 3 meters away from the Aleis ISO-6000 Series Race Reader. This will ensure you only read the device you are inserting or attaching. • Keep computers a minimum of 3 meters away from the Aleis ISO-6000 Series Race Reader. • Securely fasten the computer lead into your scale indicator or computer – screw the connectors into place. • Make sure the batteries you are using are fully charged.(Battery models only) 4.0 WARNINGS • Never open the reader box. • Never drill the antenna. • Some magnetic fields will affect reading, such as some computers, computer monitors, electric motors and generators – this can be checked by watching the ON light on the reader. This light must be blinking freely and evenly; if it is pulsating, and your read range has diminished, then the reader is being interfered with. 5.0 CARE AND MAINTENANCE • Charge batteries after every use. Only use fully charged batteries. • Keep all spare electronic RFID devices away from the Aleis ISO-6000 Series Race Reader. • Protect computer and power leads from animals (such as parrots) if the system is left in the yards. • Treat the system with care; Aleis has built this system for the cattle yards, but it is an electronic unit and must be treated accordingly. • Keep all reader connectors clean and screw covers on fittings when not in use. • MOST IMPORTANT: Aleis’ customers are our highest priority, and if you have any queries, please feel most welcome to contact your Aleis distributor.
