Good Read visual indicator.

Construction
The Allflex RS250 Series Stick Reader is
assembled in a rugged fiberglass tube enclosure that is designed to be easily held and operated with
either hand and is convenient to position in the vicinity of the transponder being scanned. The scanning
antenna coil is internally mounted in the forward end of the tube and is oriented for optimal read
distance with ear tag transponders when the axis of the transponder is coaxial to the axis of the
enclosure tube.

Performance Capabilities
The Allflex Stick Reader is capable of reading the Allflex 30mm HDX/HP ear tag transponder at a
minimum distance of 27cm (10.63) (optimum orientation) when powered from 6VDC with a read error
rate no greater the 1 in 10
6
. FDX-B ear tag transponders can be read at nominal distance of 20cm
(7.87). The built in memory of the Allflex RS250 Series Stick Reader also stores 3,000+ transponder
codes and can be downloaded by sending a command via Hyper Terminal or an equivalent program.
