ISO 24631-2:2017 provides the means of evaluating the conformance with ISO 11784 and ISO 11785 of radiofrequency identification (RFID) transceivers used in the individual identification of animals. It also specifies the procedure for applying for a transceiver test registration and the associated rights and obligations of the parties involved.
ISO 24631-2:2017 includes a wireless synchronization test applicable to mobile transceivers, however, it contains no provision for evaluating the wired synchronization of stationary transceivers.
The test procedures specified in this document are recognized by the Federation of European Companion Animals Veterinary Association (FECAVA) and World Small Animal Veterinarian Association (WSAVA) and, as such, can be applied also to companion animals.
