applications. This is a useful tool to help speed data entry regarding scanned animals and should help
speed the reunification process.
When using keyboard wedge, place your cursor where you want the ID code to go in your application, and
then press the center button on Compact Max RW to read the microchip. If a microchip can be localized,
the unique ID code will appear automatically in the correct field, just as if you typed it in yourself. The
example below
shows what a keyboard wedge entry looks like in Microsoft Excel.
You can also send and receive data through the USB port as though it were a serial/RS232 port.
Instructions are outlined in chapter titled “Command Interface”.

4 Command Interface
4.1 Commands Overview
You can transfer data from OMNI MAX to your computer, tablet or smartphone using the USB Virtual
Comm Port or Bluetooth connection.
3 command types are possible:



Get
Set
Execute
A “Get” command is used to read a parameter value from the reader and always starts with the letter “G”,
e.g “G\r\n”.
A “Set” command is used to change a parameter value in the reader and always starts with a dot “.”,
followed by the command name and parameter value, e.g “.[CMD]\r\n”.
An “Execute” command is sent to the reader to perform an action. These commands always start with “.”,
and do not have any parameters, e.g. “.\r\n”.

5 Troubleshooting

Not enough reading distance between the reader and the animal
The optimal reading distance is obtained with the microchip perpendicular to the reader’s
antenna and aimed at its center. If the microchip is implanted into an animal, its orientation
may not be optimal and therefore the reading distance may be reduced.
Try to reduce disturbances to RFID like computer equipment, video or TV. Move a few
meters away and try again.
Do not use the reader on a metal table. Metal will reduce the performance of the reader.
The reading distance will be somewhat reduced if the microchip is still inside the needle.

The reader does not read a microchip
It takes time and patience to effectively scan an animal. Be sure to change the position and
direction of the reader, and try multiple times.

The reader does not work
Check to ensure that the ambient temperature is between -5ºC and +55º C (23°F-131°F).
If you’re still having problems, please contact your local Datamars dealer for assistance.
