1.9 Activating W-Series ActivDuo Tags
In addition to using the PG101-A Programmer, all W-Series tags offer an ‘auto-wake’ feature. This feature
automatically activates the tag approximately 2 minutes after fitting the tag to an asset and arming the anti-
tamper circuit. If the anti-tamper feature is not going to be used, then ensure the tag is activated using the
tag programmer before attachment to an asset.
1.9.1 Using the Auto-Wake Feature with the ActivDuo Tags
When fitting a tag to an asset object, ensure the correct Tag Attachment Kit with Anti-Tamper is used. The
small magnet supplied with each gel pad should be fitted into the pad, and the pad orientated so that the
magnet sits between the tag and the object in the correct location. This location is indicated on the back of
the tag by a small indented circle, and the attachment gel pad has a hole for the magnet that allows for the
positioning of the magnet in the correct location on the back of the tag.
The tag will automatically activate after 2 minutes of fitting the magnet in place. The user should have an
operational reader handy to ensure that the tag has activated.
1.10 Disposal of Tags
At the end of its functional life the tag must be disposed of in a suitable local recycling facility and in
accordance with any local laws pertaining to the recycling of waste electronic equipment. The tag consists of
an ABS plastic housing, electronic components and a lithium battery. The tag contains no substances
banned by the European Union’s Restriction of Hazardous Substances (RoHS) directive.
European customers: under the provisions of the Waste Electrical and Electronic Equipment (WEEE)
Directive 2002/96/EC, the spent tag must be recovered and recycled in accordance with the local regulations
pertaining to WEEE. Please enquire with your European Wavetrend sales agent for details of how to dispose
the tag in the correct way.
