Description
The RS420 reader is a rugged portable hand-held scanner and telemeter for Electronic
Identification (EID) ear tags specifically designed for livestock applications. The reader fully
complies with ISO standards ISO11784 / ISO11785 for FDX-B and HDX technologies.
In addition to its tag reading capability, the reader can store the ear tag numbers in different
working sessions, each ear tag being associated with a time/date stamp, in its internal
memory and transmit them to a personal computer via a USB interface, an RS-232 interface
or a Bluetooth

interface.
The device has a large display which allows you to view the “Main Menu” and configure the
reader to your specifications.
