Example 3: Herringbone (with/without Feed) without Rapid Exit
In straight line parlors (with no Rapid Exit), side walls can be used for mounting the antennas in front
of the cows' heads, so they are centered to the ears with the tags.
The antenna type and distance depend on the height of the cows and the side of the parlor they're
located on.
On the parlor side where the ear tag sits further from the wall (See cows on the left side in the image
at right), it may be advisable to use the 50 cm antenna to achieve a wider range. We also
recommend using the 50 cm antenna in parlors without feeders and/or when there is constraining
metal works below the cow's chest.
