5.3.1.
Animal Statistics
1. Select desired feeder(s) in the “Feeders” drop-down menu.
●
The feed intake tables will only display for the selected feeders.
●
Selecting numerous (20 or more) feeders at once will take longer to
compute intakes
2. Enter the date range.
●
Large date ranges (multiple weeks at once) may take longer to compute.
By default, the last four days are chosen.
3. Check Show Visits to view the individual visits of animals (rather than only daily
intakes). You will be limited to a maximum of 5000 entries when viewing in the
browser.
4. Click the “Go” button to view the summary table for the chosen data range.
●
The first sets of tables are categorized by type of feed. Each animal’s
intake is displayed by day in the selected date range.
●
The last table displays each individual intake in ascending order based on
time. This last table will not appear if the list is too long. To view this
table, only choose one day to view.
5. To download the data as a CSV for use in a spreadsheet program or other
software, click the “Download” or “Alt. Download” button. These two buttons
will provide different formatting to the data. Each has benefits depending on
what software will be used for viewing:
●
Use Alt Download for Excel or spreadsheet software
●
Use Download for R, SAS, or other statistical software
