Afi2GO User Manual Page 1 Chapter 1 Product Overview Afi2GOTM is an afimilk® program installed on a smartphone, pocket PC or PDA (hand-held computer), as a field extension of AfiFarmTM and AfiShepherdTM. Throughout this manual, the term PDA refers to all three of these devices. You prepare for an Afi2GO session in AfiFarm or AfiShepherd, and then transfer the relevant data and settings to Afi2GO. Afi2GO supports the following areas:  Animal and herd events  Veterinary issues  Fertility events  Animal characteristics The most efficient and accurate way of using Afi2GO is when your animals are marked by passive or active RFID tags: You point the PDA’s antenna at the tag, press a button, and view a concise summary of what field actions are required for that animal. (You can also manually enter the animal ID.) As you implement the day’s plan, you tap the information into Afi2GO, taking advantage of the many intuitive shortcuts supported for entering the data. When the field session is over, you transfer the changed data back into AfiFarm or AfiShepherd. NOTES: For support of Afi2GO, make sure that your version of AfiFarm/ AfiShepherd is 3.07 or later. In this document, AfiShepherd refers to either AfiSheep or AfiGoat. Afi2GO can be used in most devices that operate under a Windows Mobile operating system. Clarify with S.A.E. Afikim as to which devices may be used. S.A.E. Afikim recommends using a specially built Psion TEKLOGIX® Workabout Pro G2 7527® PDA. The interface in this manual is from a Workabout Pro device. If using a different device, the interface may vary slightly.
Afi2GO User Manual Page 2 NOTE: Before charging or using the battery pack, read instructions in the Workabout Pro Hand-Held Computer With Windows Mobile User Manual , Psion part number 8100144. Batteries must be fully charged before use. The backup battery can be charged only after the main battery is fully charged. Charge both batteries, (including the backup battery) for 36 hours before use. As Lithium Ion batteries age, their capacity decreases gradually, and they are generally considered depleted after approximately 2 years of use (less than 60% of original capacity remaining). Keep in mind however that heavy usage or operating the unit at temperature extremes will shorten the battery life.
Afi2GO User Manual Page 3 Chapter 2 Preparations for working with Afi2GO This chapter includes the following topics:  “WORKABOUT PRO preparations” (below)  “Synchronizing PDA and AfiFarm/ AfiShepherd computer clocks” on page 5  “Preparations in AfiFarm/ AfiShepherd for Afi2GO” on page 5 WORKABOUT PRO preparations This section deals with getting the WORKABOUT PRO ready to work with Afi2GO. Preparing the WORKABOUT PRO for Operation For cautions and explanations about charging the WORKABOUT PRO batteries, see the “Preparing the WORKABOUT PRO for Operation” section of the WORKABOUT PRO user manual supplied (on disk) with this product.

Tag scanning tips There are two troubleshooting issues in scanning animal RFID (radio frequency identification) tags:  Making sure that the scanner reads the tag  Making sure that the scanner does not read the wrong tag These sections provides guidelines and illustrations to help you succeed in reading the correct tag. Passive tags and active tags Both passive tags and active tags encode a unique electronic identification (EID) tag number. When you scan a tag, both active and passive tags respond by broadcasting the electronic tag number back to the scanner. Active tags (an option for cows, but not in use for sheep or goats) gather information that helps diagnose health and fertility status. When you scan an active tag, the additional information is also broadcast back to the scanner. For part information on the variety of scanning antennas (those for passive tags and those for active tags) available for the WORKABOUT PRO, see “Afi2GO assemblies and parts” on page 43.
Afi2GO User Manual Page 38 Ear tags All supported ear tags are passive, available for cows, sheep, and goats. Ear tags are fastened as illustrated in Figure 12. Figure 12: Ear tag Point the scanning antenna towards the flat face of the tag that you see on the inside of the ear. The distance from a scanning antenna to an ear tag should be less than 15 cm. (6 inches). Bolus tags The passive RFID ceramic bolus tag is orally administered by a trained operator. After being swallowed by the cow, sheep, or goat, it lodges in the reticulum (the second fore-stomach). To read a bolus tag, point the antenna at the front left side of the animal, just behind the armpit. The distance from the tip of the scanning antenna to a bolus tag should be less than 15 cm. (6 inches). Leg tags Although passive RFID leg tags are available for cows, sheep, and goats, active tags are supported for cows only. Scan all RFID leg tags from above. Active leg tags For active leg tags, the distance from the tip of the scanning antenna to the tag should be less than 45 cm. (18 inches). The correct antenna orientation (from above), and the maximum distance, are illustrated in Figure 13.
Afi2GO User Manual Page 39 Figure 13: Active leg tag Passive leg tags For passive leg tags, under ideal conditions (from above), the maximum distance from the tip of the scanning antenna to the tag is 15 cm. (6 inches). If many animals are crowding together, or if the antenna is not above the tag, in order to avoid mistaken identification, the maximum distance is 5 cm. (2 inches). The correct antenna orientation (from above), and the maximum distance under crowded conditions, are illustrated in Figure 14. Figure 14: Passive leg tag
