Stock Recorder Pro with Integrated Reader SDL300i
This is the most powerful, easy to use and expandable type of handheld device. Shearwell supply the Handheld Stock Recorder running a dedicated program which, with full colour touch screen, full alphanumeric key pad and inbuilt reader offers a very comprehensive data recording system, allowing animals to be recorded either electronically or manually. This type of handheld will hold all the records for your livestock (cattle and sheep), including parentage, weight, treatment and movement history so all this information is available at your fingertips while out with your livestock. Unlimited general purpose comments can be stored and re-called for each animal. The device has enough memory to hold information for more than 500,000 animals. The Handheld Stock Recorder will read all ISO compliant devices – ear tags, bolus and implants.
In addition, the Handheld Stock Recorder can be linked wirelessly using ‘Bluetooth’ to a wide range of peripheral devices; such equipment as EID race readers (allowing large numbers of animals moving through a race to be automatically read and recorded), weigh systems (allowing automatic weighing of animals) and a range of equipment for drafting animals into different groups, based either on weight or any other data stored on the handheld such as age, breed, sex, breeding performance etc. The choice is endless!
Data collected on the Handheld Stock Recorder is transferred easily to FarmWorks by SDL farm management software where comprehensive reports can be printed to assist with both legislative and management recording.
