PREPARATION FOR USE
When you have mounted your Aleis ISO-FFW Series 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-FFW Series
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-FFW Series Reader.
Securely fasten the computer lead into your scale indicator or computer – screw the
connectors into place.
3.0
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 may affect your read range and therefore your reader is
being interfered with.
4.0
CARE AND MAINTENANCE
Keep all spare electronic RFID devices away from the Aleis ISO-FFW Series Reader.
Protect computer and power leads from animals 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.

9.1 How to: Read & Store RFIDs
1.
2.
3.
Turn the 8030 Series Reader ON.
When Reading Press the button on the wand and wave the wand past the RFID device ear tag or rumen pellet. When reading rumen pellets, simply wave the wand in a reverse
‘L’ pattern behind the front leg of the animal, or in front of the brisket.
When you have finished reading, you may turn the Reader OFF, and download it later at
your PC, or you may start a new session and read another group of animals.
9.2 How to: Create Sessions using menu.
1.
2.
3.
4.
To start a new session to read another group of animals, simply press the MENU button.
The word ‘Session’ will be highlighted, press the OK button.
The word ‘New’ will be highlighted, press the OK button.
Select Yes by using the left arrow key, then press the OK button. (If previous sessions are
empty, you will not be able to create a new session)
5. Press the C button (located to the left of the MENU button) until you return to the main
reading screen, and read the next group of cattle.
9.3 How to: Create Sessions using F1 and F2 Keys.
1. Press F2 to end current session.
2. Press F1 to start new session. Four Beeps will be heard.
Note: you can start a new session even if the one you have ended has no RFID devices in it.
9.4 How to: Upload RFIDs into the Reader
The feature of uploading RFIDs into the 8030 portable wand is to allow you to find particular
RFIDs that you need to identify. For example, if you need to find a particular animal that was
treated with a certain medicinal treatment, you can upload the RFID into the reader. When you
read the animal with that RFID, the reader will alert you with a long series of beeps so that you
will know you have found the animal you were looking for.
1.
2.
To use this feature, there are two steps you will need to perform:
Create a file to upload into the reader.
Upload the RFIDs into the reader.
Before starting you will need:
1. Aleis DataLink installed on your computer.
2. A working COM port – you can check this by turning your 8030 reader on, and then opening
Aleis DataLink. Down the bottom right corner of the Aleis DataLink screen, you should see
that the software has connected to a particular unit.
3. A list of RFIDs that you want to put into the reader.
10 of 45
Aleis ISO-FFW Series Operational Manual
Step 1: Creating a file to upload into the reader.
Creating the file to upload into the reader is very easy. You can do this in Microsoft Excel or
Wordpad or Notepad. All you need to do is have a list of RFIDs with the word TAG as the first
entry, ie at the top of the list. It must look like this:
TAG
982 000023661452
982 000016654299
982 000027909419
982 000024909416
982 000009161045
982 000024566253
982 000015883922
982 000030781909
If you are using Microsoft Excel, then simply put this in Column A, with the word TAG
in Row 1.
Once you have done this, you will need to save this as a text file (*.txt). It is very important that
you save this as a text file or the operation will not work. Hint: When you save this, give it a
name that is five letters or less.
Step 2: Upload the files into the reader.
1. Open up Aleis DataLink.
2. Once the software has found the reader, click on the Open button located at the left side
of the DataLink screen (there is a big yellow manilla folder on the button).
3. Find the file that you created, and click on the open button.
4. You will see that file name listed in the main screen of Aleis DataLink where the session
names and numbers are normally displayed.
5. Click on that file name.
6. Now click on the Upload button located at the left side of the DataLink screen.
7. You will be asked to enter a name. If you want to change the name, go ahead and type
in what you would like, then click on the OK button.
8. When it has been successfully uploaded, you will see at the bottom left of the DataLink
screen, the words, “Upload Complete”.
9.5 How to: Compare RFIDs in the Reader
You want to ensure that every time you read an RFID, the reader is checking it against the list of
RFIDs you have uploaded into the reader. To make this happen, do the following:
1. Ensure the reader is turned on.
2. Start a new session – as per your requirements . . . so you will be using a template that you
are planning to do your work with.
3. Once you have started the new session, and you are in the main reading screen, press the
MENU button.
4. Scroll down to Read Setup and press the OK button.
5. Scroll down to Comparison and press the OK button.
6. Scroll down to  Session ( ) and press the OK button.
7. Scroll back to the name you saved the uploaded file as and press the OK button.
8. Press the C button (located beside the MENU button).
9. The reader will then reboot – now press the MENU button again.
10. Scroll down to Read Setup and press the OK button.
11 of 45
Aleis ISO-FFW Series Operational Manual
11. Scroll down to Alert and press the OK button.
12. Ensure Condition is highlighted and press the OK button.
13. Scroll down to  On Match and press the OK button – you will see a tick appear in the
box.
14. Press the C button (located beside the MENU button).
15. Scroll down to Action and press the OK button.
16. Scroll down to  Msg, LEDs, Buzzer and press the OK button – you will see a tick appear
in the box.
17. Press the C button (located beside the MENU button).
18. Scroll down to Duration and press the OK button.
19. Choose the setting you want and press the OK button. ‘Until Keypress’ means that the
reader will continue to beep and flash the LEDs until any key on the reader is pressed.
20. Press the C button (located beside the MENU button) three times – until you see the main
reading screen.
21. Turn the reader off and then back on.
22. The reader is now ready to use and will compare the RFIDs you read against the list you
uploaded.
**Note: When you upload another new list of RFIDs into the reader, in Step 6 of the
above, you will need to tick the box  Current Session and then scroll back down and tick
the  Session ( ) again to reactivate the reader to search

9.6 Formatting the File System
Formatting of the file system is very important to keep your reader operating at its maximum
performance. Once the reader has read and stored a lot of tags eg 40000+ you may notice a slow
down in its performance when storing and recalling data. This is similar to your PC when the
Hard Drive gets full. When you clear the reader it doesn’t actually remove the data so you can
retrieve it if you accidentally have cleared the reader. When a “Format file system” is done the
data then is lost.
Formatting of the file system should be done every 2-4 months for heavy users or 4-6 months for
light users.
Before formatting the file system make sure you have saved any data in the reader. After
formatting the data is NOT recoverable.
When the reader is formatted your templates will also be cleared so note down the names and the
fields in the template so you can set them up again.
9.7 How to Format your reader
Note: Read above “Formatting File System in Reader” first
Step 1 Open DataLink
Step 2 Click on “Setup”.
Step 3 Click on “Format file system”
Step 4 Click on “OK”
Step 5 Type in your Name and click on “OK”
Step 6 The reader will now be formatting the file system
Step 7 Click on the “OK”
Your reader is now formatted.

14.5 How to: Upload RFIDs into the Reader
The feature of uploading RFIDs into the 9060 reader is to allow you to find particular RFIDs
that you need to identify. For example, if you need to find a particular animal that was treated
with a certain medicinal treatment, you can upload the RFID into the reader. When you read the
animal with that RFID, the reader will alert you with a long series of beeps so that you will know
you have found the animal you were looking for.
To use this feature, there are two steps you will need to perform three steps:
3.
Create a file to upload into the reader.
4.
Upload the RFIDs into the reader.
5.
Set the reader up to check each RFID you read against the RFIDs you put into the
reader.
Before starting you will need:
4. Aleis DataLink installed on your computer.
5. A working COM port – you can check this by turning your 9060 reader on, and then opening
Aleis DataLink. Down the bottom right corner of the Aleis DataLink screen, you should see
that the software has connected to a particular unit.
6. A list of RFIDs that you want to put into the reader.
Step 1: Creating a file to upload into the reader.
Creating the file to upload into the reader is very easy. You can do this in Microsoft Excel or
Wordpad or Notepad. All you need to do is have a list of RFIDs with the word TAG as the first
entry, ie at the top of the list. It must look like this:
TAG
982 000023661452
982 000016654299
982 000027909419
982 000024909416
982 000009161045
982 000024566253
982 000015883922
982 000030781909
If you are using Microsoft Excel, then simply put this in Column A, with the word TAG
in Row 1.
Once you have done this, you will need to save this as a text file (*.txt). It is very important that
you save this as a text file or the operation will not work. Hint: When you save this, give it a
name that is five letters or less.
Page 30 of 45
Aleis ISO-FFW Series Operational Manual
Step 2: Upload the files into the reader.
9. Open up Aleis DataLink.
10. Once the software has found the reader, click on the Open button located at the left side
of the DataLink screen (there is a big yellow manilla folder on the button).
11. Find the file that you created, and click on the open button.
12. You will see that file name listed in the main screen of Aleis DataLink where the session
names and numbers are normally displayed.
13. Click on that file name.
14. Now click on the Upload button located at the left side of the DataLink screen.
15. You will be asked to enter a name. If you want to change the name, go ahead and type
in what you would like, then click on the OK button.
16. When it has been successfully uploaded, you will see at the bottom left of the DataLink
screen, the words, “Upload Complete”.
14.6 How to: Compare RFIDs in the Reader
You want to ensure that every time you read an RFID, the reader is checking it against the list of
RFIDs you have uploaded into the reader. To make this happen, do the following:
23. Ensure the reader is turned on.
24. Start a new session – as per your requirements . . . so you will be using a template that you
are planning to do your work with.
25. Once you have started the new session, and you are in the main reading screen, press the
MENU button.
26. Scroll down to Read Setup and press the OK button.
27. Scroll down to Comparison and press the OK button.
28. Scroll down to  Session ( ) and press the OK button.
29. Scroll back to the name you saved the uploaded file as and press the OK button.
30. Press the C button (located beside the MENU button).
31. The reader will then reboot – now press the MENU button again.
32. Scroll down to Read Setup and press the OK button.
33. Scroll down to Alert and press the OK button.
34. Ensure Condition is highlighted and press the OK button.
35. Scroll down to  On Match and press the OK button – you will see a tick appear in the
box.
36. Press the C button (located beside the MENU button).
37. Scroll down to Action and press the OK button.
38. Scroll down to  Msg, LEDs, Buzzer and press the OK button – you will see a tick appear
in the box.
39. Press the C button (located beside the MENU button).
40. Scroll down to Duration and press the OK button.
41. Choose the setting you want and press the OK button. ‘Until Keypress’ means that the
reader will continue to beep and flash the LEDs until any key on the reader is pressed.
42. Press the C button (located beside the MENU button).
43. If you want a message to appear as well, scroll down to Message and press the OK button.
44. Type the message you want to appear, then press the OK button.
45. You will see a message that says “Message Saved”. Press the OK button.
46. Press the C button (located beside the MENU button) three times – until you see the main
reading screen.
47. Turn the reader off and then back on.
48. The reader is now ready to use and will compare the RFIDs you read against the list you
uploaded.
**Note: When you upload another new list of RFIDs into the reader, in Step 6 of the above, you will need to
tick the box  Current Session and then scroll back down and tick the  Session ( ) again to reactivate the
reader to search

14.7 Formatting the File System
Formatting of the file system is very important to keep your reader operating at its maximum performance.
Once the reader has read and stored a lot of tags eg 40000+ you may notice a slow down in its performance
when storing and recalling data. This is similar to your PC when the Hard Drive gets full. When you clear
the reader it doesn’t actually remove the data so you can retrieve it if you accidentally have cleared the
reader. When a “Format file system” is done the data then is lost.
Formatting of the file system should be done every 2-4 months for Heavy users or 4-6 months for light users.
Before formatting the file system make sure you have saved any data in the reader. After formatting the data
is NOT recoverable.
When the reader is formatted your templates will also be cleared so note down the names and the fields in
the template so you can set them up again.
2.8 How to Format your reader
Note: Read above “Formatting File System in Reader” first
Step 1 Open DataLink
Step 2 Click on “Setup”.
Step 3 Click on “Format file system”
Step 4 Click on “OK”
Step 5 Type in your Name and click on “OK”
Step 6 The reader will now be formatting the file system
Step 7 Click on the “OK”
Your reader is now formatted.
