User's Manual

The Wand Reader antenna, handle and switch are waterproof and can be completely
immersed underwater as long as the Reader itself is kept out of the water.
Chip orientation plays a major role in optimum performance of the reader and reading
distances. In the figure below, CHIP A, in a parallel orientation to the antenna, will
achieve its maximum reading distance towards the center of the coil. CHIP B, in the
perpendicular orientation to the antenna, will achieve it maximum read distance towards
the outside edges of the antenna. It is therefore recommended to move the antenna in a
circular motion so that at some point you are energizing the chip with a greater magnetic
field making it easier to find the microchip
4. Battery: The reader is powered by one 9 volt battery. An alkaline battery is
recommended for a longer battery life. The battery is located in the battery compartment
on the lower backside of the reader. To replace the battery, slide the cover straight off,
Secure it, by sliding the cover back to it’s original position making sure the wires are
securely inside the compartment.
WARNING: FOLLOW BATTERY INSTRUCTIONS FOR DISPOSAL.
