countries are included.

USB stick

The USB stick contains Data Link PC

software and reference information.

USB series A to mini-B

cable

Charging the battery

Use the mains power adaptor to charge the indicator’s internal battery from the

mains power supply.

Getting around

Installing

Before you can weigh animals, you need to connect the indicator to some load bars

or load cells. To identify animals using electronic (EID) tags, you also need to

connect the indicator to an EID reader.

Installing the indicator and load bars

Connecting the indicator to an EID reader

Connecting via

Bluetooth

®

1. First, switch on the indicator.

2. Then, switch on the EID reader.

For further instructions on pairing the EID reader, see the EID Reader User Manual.

Connecting via cable

Connect the EID reader to the indicator’s power/serial connector using a serial

cable, available from Datamars as an optional accessory.

5

Setting up the indicator

The first time that you turn on the indicator, follow the step by step instructions to

set the language, country, date and time.

When shipped, the indicator is set up to manually record animal weights and IDs,

without drafting. You should change the way that the indicator is set up to suit the

task that you are about to perform.

Applying a favourite setup

Favourite setups are saved configurations that change the settings of the indicator

to suit a particular purpose. The indicator comes pre-loaded with various favourite

setups such as ‘Weigh with ID’ (weigh animals and record IDs at the same time).

When you start a new session you have the option to apply a favourite setup. In

the New Session screen, press

.

For more information about sessions, see

Recording information

on page 6.

Further modifying settings, if desired

After you have applied a favourite setup, you can further modify any of the settings,

if desired.

To modify the settings, from the Home screen, press

.

You can also change the information that you would like to see on the Weigh

screen during weighing.

To set up the Weigh screen, from the Settings screen, press

.

XR5000 and ID5000 models only - After you have changed any of the

settings, you can save these settings as your own customised favourite

setup. It will then be possible to apply this favourite setup next time you

want to do the same task. For example, you could start with the favourite

setup ‘Draft by weight with ID’, add Sex and Breed fields to the Weigh

screen, then save the modified setup to use again later.

6

Recording information

Sessions

When you record information such as weight, it is stored in a ‘session’. A session is

like a file on a computer. We recommend that you start a new session each day or

for each group of animals.

To start a new session, from the Home screen press

.

Weighing an animal

Ensure that the indicator is displaying 0.0. If not, press

ZER O

.

1. Move the animal onto the platform.

2. If recording IDs, enter the animal’s VID or scan the EID tag using an EID

reader.

3. When the ‘weight stable’ message appears, press

REC

.

The indicator will record the weight along with any other information entered.

4. Move the animal off the platform.

If the indicator is not displaying 0.0 between animals or there are

problems with inaccurate or unstable weights, make sure that the bars

are firmly secured to the concrete floor and free from stones or dirt and

that the load bars are properly connected to the indicator.

If you set Weight Recording to Auto, you won't need to press

REC

for

each animal.

For users of 3000 series indicators



Key differences

If you’ve used a 3000 series indicator before, here are a few key differences with

the 5000 series indicator which you will want to know.

On a 5000 series indicator:

 The word ‘session’ is used instead of file.

 A file (session) is started by pressing instead of selecting a

blank file.

 A new session will automatically have the same settings as the previous one,

however they can be changed at any time.

 You can set up for a task more easily, using preset favourite setups. XR5000

and ID5000 models - You can also save your own customised favourite setups.

 Fields can go anywhere on the Weigh screen. There’s no longer a distinction

between using the left hand side of the Weigh screen for viewing data and the

right hand side for entering data.

 Data Link PC software is used to transfer data, instead of Link3000.

Transferring your data onto a 5000 series indicator

To transfer animal records from your 3000 series indicator to the 5000 series:

1. Install the Data Link software on your PC.

2. Use Data Link to transfer the data from your 3000 series indicator to a PC.

3. Use Data Link again to transfer the data onto the 5000 series indicator.

14

Maintenance and servicing

We strongly recommend that you regularly back up the data on your indicator by

transferring it to a PC using Data Link or a USB flash drive.

before

updating. In the unlikely event that an update fails, Technical Support will

help you to restore your data from the backup.

Caring for the indicator

Do not leave the indicator or load bars submerged in water. Store the indicator in a

cool, dry place.

together. When they are not in use, fit the dust caps to the connectors. Always replace

the rubber cover over the USB ports when they are not in use.
