The investigation sought to get the basic data which need to develop an automatic livestock walk-through scale. A set of threshold between the lightest and the heaviest livestock weight helps to sellect the true weight of the livestock from many measuring weights. The weight of feces on the scale affects the accuracy of measuring and must be compensated. Two livestocks on the scale must be avoided to get an accurate livestock weight. It is clarified that the required conditions for the identification scale are: the direction of tag to antenna must be set at a right angle; the sensing area of tag for antenna must be set in full width of the livestock's road; the lenght of antenna must be set longer than the livestock's step length.
