TagMax app for Allflex EID Readers and Tru-Test Scales & EID Readers
Efficiently scan and process cattle with your mobile device.
TagMax was created to give cattle producers the ability to leverage the power of their Electronic ID readers and weigh scales to quickly and accurately collect data in the field.
Whether you simply need to collect data from a cattle working session or have all your CattleMax records at your fingertip, TagMax can help you get more out of your livestock equipment and mobile devices.
How TagMax Works
TagMax's two modes give you the flexibility to collect and record data your way.
Sessions Mode - works online and offline
Organize cattle workings into sessions. When an animal’s EID tag is scanned, a record in the session is created and you can add additional information including ear tag, weight, and custom fields.
If you connect a weigh scale indicator, the weight will automatically be entered in the scan record once the indicator has locked on to the animal’s weight.
CattleMax Mode - works online
Scan an animal’s EID tag to send it to CattleMax. From there, CattleMax will display the animal’s profile where you can view, update, and add details.
If no animal matching the EID number is found, you will be given the option to assign the scanned EID number to an existing animal or create a new animal.
