3. Reading 
The reader antenna is located inside the reader at the top. The bottom of the 
reader has a label marked “READ HERE” which identifies the antenna area. While 
pressing down the Read button, scan in a circular pattern while moving toward the 
head starting from the middle of the back.   
 
Figure 2 
 
The reason for this scanning pattern is that chip orientation plays a major role in 
the optimum performance of the reader and reading distances.  In Figure 3, below, 
CHIP(S) A, in a parallel orientation to the antenna, will achieve its maximum 
reading distance towards the center of the coil or in parallel to either end of the 
antenna.  CHIP(S) B, in the perpendicular orientation to the antenna, will achieve 
its maximum read distance towards the outside edges of the antenna.  It is 
therefore recommended to move the antenna in a circular motion so that at some 
point you are energizing the chip with a greater magnetic field making it easier to 
find the microchip.
