Using the Tag Tracker Wand
When using the Tag Tracker wand it is important to note the following:
- When turning the reader on, flip (don’t push) the On/Off toggle toward the side of the reader showing the metal screw heads.
- The reader beeps once when first turned on.
- To trigger a read, grip the reader just behind the On/Off switch to break the infared beam.
- Once the reader begins looking for a tag, it will remain in the “read” mode for at least ten seconds and the red LED near the end of the reader will remain on.
- If the reader “times out”, you will need to grip the infared trigger again so the reader will begin a new tag search.
- If a tag is read before the reader times out, the reader will stay in read mode and will continue to search for tags.
- When connecting to your computer or palm pilot/pocket PC you may be asked for a pin. The factory default pin is: 1234.If the reader will be idle for more than half an hour, use the toggle switch to turn the reader off. Also make sure to exit the MISTRO Wand application on your computer or palm pilot/pocket PC.
- To reconnect, turn on the reader, then re-start the MISTRO Wand application and re-enable your Bluetooth connection.
- The “Low Battery” indicator LED above the trigger will flash red when the battery needs to be charged.
- NEVER turn the BT3 reader off while the MISTRO Wand software is running. Always exit the MISTRO Wand software first prior to turning off the reader.
