Acquiring measurements using the WAND and Assigning
RFIDs to TMS Sensors in the eld
STEP ONE
Place theWAND above the RFID, press the Scan button. If the RFID has been detected, the
locationindicatordisplaystheRFIDtag(“RFID/N/A”if theRFIDhasnotbeenassigned,“RFID
/nameof location”if it hasbeen). Otherwise,thelocation indicatorwilldisplay“N/A”only. In
that case, release the button, reposition the probe and press the button again.

and the signal intensity is high, release the scan button. If the message“too close”appears,
increase the distance from the probe to the sensor slightly.
STEP THREE
Savethemeasurementby pressing theenter button. If the RFID has alreadybeen assigned,
you will see a save conrmation message. Press the enter button again to go back to the
measure screen. If the sensor history has been ENABLED (See MEASUREMENT SETTINGS)
you will automatically see a screen showing a list of that sensor’s previous measurements
STEP FOUR
If the RFIDhas notbeen assignedpreviously(inthe IDMsoftware,and then importedtothe
probe, or directly in the eld), a window will open to assign it in the eld.
