Replacing A Lost PipTag

Replace PipTag – Elite Reporter

It is not uncommon for a PipTag to be lost or removed from a location. Replacing it can be done easily for the EliteReporter program.

First Step

Always, instal the replacement PipTag where required, connect it and log some data. Then, import the data into EliteReporter or into WebEye. This has the effect of getting the serial number into the system and makes programmiong easier.

Important : find out the serial number of the PipTag. You may need to consult with Elite-ID. If we tested it for you, there will be a note with the serial number on it attached to the PipTag.

Step 2 – Elite Reporter

Ok. You have installed the PipTag. You have logged some data, you have imported the data into EliteReporter. It is likely the data is now in the Error Batches. Use this to program the PipTag.

Repeat, you should import data with that PipTag in it.

Now, to code the PipTag…

  • Go to Data menu, second option, click on Re-Process,
  • Go to the last batch of data on the left hand side. You may have to scroll down,
