Step 2.

  • In the User Lists window, Select New, and add a new name eg: EID DRAFT TO GATE 1. Select OK.


Step 3.

  • Add the required animals. (Alternatively, you can select the required animals in the main animal list, then create a new user list)


Step 4.

  • Connect the computer to the Ruddweigh, making sure ‘Communications’ is set to ‘Port 1 Computer’.


Step 5.
