Replace a lost EID (Live Entry & TSI)

Summary

An animal has lost its Electronic Identification (EID) and I am using Live Entry, how do I assign a new EID?

Detailed Description

Step 1: If an animal comes into reader range but has lost its Electronic Identification (EID):

  1. Get a new tag and scan it
  2. A message will appear asking
    • New animal
    • Existing animal
    • Ignore
  3. Click on Existing Animal 
  4. Enter the Visual Identification (VID) of the animal
  5. If the animal is in Stockbook it will be highlighted in Blue (if it is not there, go to Step 2.)
  6. Press ENTER on your keyboard
  7. You will see a confirmation on your screen saying you are trying to assign an EID but it already has one
  8. Click on the YES tab
  9. You have now successfully reassigned the EID and automatically created a note to the same effect against the animal 

Step 2: If the animal can’t be found in the VID search, you need to add it as a new animal:

  1. Press ENTER on your keyboard
  2. Click on the PASS tab on your screen or press F8 on your keyboard
  3. A message will pop up asking if you want to add it as a new animal. Click on the YES tab
  4. You will now be taken to the Add Animal screen
  5. Enter the required data
  6. You have now successfully assigned the EID and created the animal in Stockbook
