Seek-and-Find

The Seek-and-Find feature is a very powerful tool that can help locate a particular plant or package in just minutes. It does this by displaying a "Geiger" bar representing how close the user is to the chosen RFID tag and audibly BEEPing to get the user's attention.

Adding Tags to the Seek-and-Find List

A binocular icon is displayed to the left of all tag IDs. Tap this icon to either add or remove a tag from the Seek-and-Find list. The icon turns and remains green for as long a tag is in the list. In this example we are adding tags from the Validation screen, but tags can be added from any screen where there is a binocular icon.

Choose the tag(s) to be searched for from the tag list.	Tap the icon to add them to the Seek-and-Find list.	Return to the Main Menu screen and navigate to the Seek-and-Find screen. The chosen tags will be displayed.

Searching for Tags

Once the chosen tags have been added to the Seek-and-Find list, start the RFID scan. See this article for more detail on RFID settings.

The read strength of a tag is indicated by how full the Geiger bar is.	The signal strength will increase the closer you are to the tag. Changing the direction the device is pointing will also affect this value.	Once you get close to a tag, you can reduce the RF power output to help zero in on the tag in question.

Once a tag is located, tap the binocular icon to remove it from the Seek-and-Find list. Note: The tag will remain displayed on this screen until the screen is refreshed. This allows the tag to be added back to the list if the icon is accidentally tapped.
