Manual version 2.7
1. Introduction
The V-Scan Hand held reader is the final stage in benefiting from RF animal ID. It is used for
reliable ISO tag reading with animal data display along with user definable data input.
Furthermore the V-Scan enables easy interfacing with any PC and/or PDA software application
using the V-Scan Data Manager application software. Also an ASCII protocol is available to send
the read and/or stored data in the V-Scan to an host application.
Moreover the V-Scan can be connected to the Velos management system. In that case the VScan – Velos synchronisation application transfers data between the Velos processing unit
(VPU) and the V-Scan.
Summarized:
 Easy and reliable animal identification

ISO compliant RF reader

Ergonomic design

Audible and visible reading confirmation

Easy data transfer between V-Scan and any
PC software via USB or Bluetooth

Data entry in user definable database

Interfacing with Nedap Velos Management
System
The hand held reader is delivered together with a Software package, battery charger and USB
cable. The matching type of charger is provided (110V or 230V) depending on the V-Scan model
ordered ( EU or USA). Optionally a car adaptor charger (12/24V DC) can be ordered.

be dangerous and helps to avoid possible problems using the V-Scan. Read this complete user
manual for further information.

Do not submerge.


Battery level is critical
The V-Scan has detected a voltage-dip
and battery needs to be charged as
soon as possible to prevent data loss!
*) If the temperature of the batteries is too low or too high, the charger stops charging temporally
until the right temperature is reached. The charger remains in fast charge mode until it detects
the full status. Then a period of normal charging is done to achieve the maximum capacity.

3.3. V-Scan Database
The V-Scan database is filled with records. A record contains items. These items are defined in
a template. Templates can be composed with the V-Scan or the V-Scan Data Manager. The
format of an item is defined by the data type. Data types can be System types or Custom
types. System types are item types which are entered by the V-Scan automatically after a tag is
scanned. Custom types have to be entered by the user. In case of using the V-Scan - Velos
Synchronisation, templates are generated automatically.

The record data is displayed as one field (type) per line. The field name is shown left and the
current value on the right. When the selected field is a user type, the user can edit the value
(except when the user type is a textual type, because the V-Scan does not support entering
text).
To enter a floating point number (e.g. - 20.8): select the field, enter 20, press  key long
(minus sign appears), press  key short (decimal symbol appears), enter 8, press the OK
button to confirm.
Changing a tag number of a record
In order to change the tag number of a record, search or scroll to the record of which the tag
number must be changed and press the scan key. When the scanned tag is a new tag number,
the V-Scan asks if the current tag number must be overwritten. This will only be the case if the
“Auto Create” setting is switched off (otherwise a new record is created instead of overwriting the
current).

4. Maintenance and cleaning
4.1. Batteries
The V-Scan is powered by four rechargeable batteries. The full performance of new batteries is
achieved only after a few charge and discharge cycles. The ambient temperature for charging
the batteries of the V-Scan must be between 5°C and 25°C. Only use the charger ( 230/110V
AC – 12VDC) provided along with the V-Scan.
Before first use of the V-Scan, charge batteries at least 16 hours for obtaining the
maximum battery capacity.
Connect the plug in the connector on the right side to charge the batteries.
The batteries can be charged and discharged hundreds of times, but it will eventually wear out.
When the scanning time is noticeable shorter than normal, replace the batteries. Warranty is not
applicable for the rechargeable batteries.
Steps for replacement of rechargeable batteries:
1. Open the back cover of the V- Scan. Use
PZ2 screw driver.
2. Open the back cover.
3. Replace the batteries. Mount the batteries
in the correct direction. Watch the positive
and negative terminals of the batteries for
the direction.
Dispose of batteries according to local
regulations (e.g. recycling). Do not dispose
as household waste.
4. After replacing batteries, close the back
cover and fix the screws firmly.
5. Connect the charger, now the V-Scan can
be switched on.
Only replace batteries with same type (4x AA-size, rechargeable, Recyko+, 1.2V,
2100mAh, NiMH, GP210AAHCB)

4.2. Cleaning
The V-Scan can be rinsed with water
for cleaning. Be sure that the cover lid
is closed.

5. Disposal
The crossed-out wheeled bin means that within the European Union the product must
be taken to separate collection at the product-end-of-life. This applies to your device
but also to any enhancements marked with this symbol. Do not dispose of these
products as unsorted municipal waste.

Appendix B Setup a Bluetooth connection
The V-Scan Application only communicates with serial COM Ports. The USB connection
automatically generates a COM Port on the PC by the installed drivers. These drivers come
along with the V-Scan Application.
The Bluetooth COM-Port driver software is not included in V-Scan Application
installation software. This driver software is dependent on the manufacturer of your
Bluetooth Device.
Make sure that Bluetooth is switched on in the V-Scan. Settings > System menu
Before the V-Scan can be connected to the PC using Bluetooth, the “Bluetooth Serial Port” must
be installed on the PC. Follow up next steps to setup the “Bluetooth serial Port” .
1. Right mouse button click on the icon in the system tray. Select Advanced Configuration.
2. Open the tab “Local Services”. If no Bluetooth Serial Port is listed, click Add Serial Device.
If a Bluetooth Serial Port is listed, start with step 5.
VP5002-300PM-00GB-V-Scan
Manual version 2.7 / Page 13
3. Select the COM Port and setup Startup Automatically. Click OK to save the setup.
4. Now the Bluetooth Serial Port (COM 6) is setup, Click OK
5. Switch on the V- Scan.
6. Right mouse button click on the icon in the system tray. Select Find devices.
VP5002-300PM-00GB-V-Scan
Manual version 2.7 / Page 14
7. Click on the Refresh button. “V-Scan xx” will appear in the list. The V-Scan number is the
last number of the V-Scan’s serial number. Select the correct V-Scan and click Connect.
8. The PC starts to make a connection with the V-Scan (“pairing this V-Scan”). A pop-up
balloon may appear in the right bottom corner of the screen. Click on the balloon.
9. Enter the PIN code “0000”(four zeros) and press OK.
10. Next screen appears. The connection with the V-Scan is made successfully. Click OK.
VP5002-300PM-00GB-V-Scan
Manual version 2.7 / Page 15
11. From now on the Bluetooth Serial Connection with the V-Scan is set up.
When the V-Scan switches off (automatically), the communication will be lost. It takes
some time (> 5 seconds) before the V-Scan Application gets the “no connection
signal” from the Bluetooth Serial Port. Also when the V-Scan is switched on again, it
takes some time before the communication is established again.
After the setup, the Bluetooth connection will be established automatically. Steps to proceed:
1. Switch on the V-Scan
2. Start the V-Scan Data Manager / V-Scan – Velos synchronisation application.
3. The connection will be established automatically.
