3 1 Vacuum ref cup
...=... Status
message Vacuum reference-value for one
teatcup. None required. 3 1 Vacuum ref cup
...=... Status
message Vacuum reference-value for one
teatcup. None required.
3 2 Min yield = ... only
got ... Status
message The milk flow has gone below the
limit, and take-off should take
place, but the cow has not given
the preset % of expected
milkyield, so the system will
extend the postmilking time by 30
sec, in order to allow the milkflow
to raise again. System don't
extend time if expected yield is
less than 500 g. Only information. The cow can be sick,
the milk flow can be uneven or the
milkyield recording can be wrong. 3 2 Min yield = ... only

3 100 Kick off (Exp Yield
..., Yield ...) Kick off Status
message The teat cup has been kicked off.
The system will make a selftest,
taking vacuum reference again
after the milking None required. Only information. 3 100 Kick off (Exp Yield

The system will make a selftest,

3 101 No yield from
flomaster Status
message No milk yield recording from the
DeLaval milk meter MM15. The
ALCOM communication with the
milk meter does not work. Restart the milking station. If the fault
persists, contact service engineer.
B) Service engineer only:
As a temporary measure, the milk
meter can be put out of use (in the
management software > VMS Config,
select "Do not use it" at "Use
Flomaster"). The total milk yield will
then be the sum of the yields from the
four DeLaval milk meter MM25.
Try to find the reason behind the error. 3 101 No yield from
flomaster Status
message No milk yield recording from the
DeLaval milk meter MM15. The
ALCOM communication with the
milk meter does not work. Restart the milking station. If the fault
persists, contact service engineer.

3 102 No yield from
freeflow ... Deviation/S-
top alarm There is no milk yield recording
from one of the four DeLaval milk
meter MM25. The ALCOM
communication with the milk meter
does not work.
The system will try to establish the
communication with the milk meter
five times. If there is still no
response from the milk meter, a
status message will be issued.
After ten attempts to establish the
communication and there is still no
response, the system is stopped
and a stop alarm is issued. Restart the milking station. If the
problem persists, contact service
engineer. The error is probably caused
by a fault on the ALCOM bus or in the
milk meter. 3 102 No yield from

milk meter.
3 103 Bad vacuum ref
cup ...=... Stop alarm Incorrect vacuum reference-value
for one teatcup. The value should
be in the range 65 - 200. Restart the milking station. New
vacuum reference-values are taken for
each teatcup during the start-up.
If the problem persists, contact service
engineer. 3 103 Bad vacuum ref
cup ...=... Stop alarm Incorrect vacuum reference-value
for one teatcup. The value should
be in the range 65 - 200. Restart the milking station. New
vacuum reference-values are taken for
each teatcup during the start-up.
If the problem persists, contact service
engineer.
3 105 Too high flow ...
from cup ... Stop alarm The milk flow recorded for one
quarter is exceedingly high. The
milk flow exceeds 10 kg per
minute. Restart the milking station.
If the problem persists, contact service
engineer.
There is probably something wrong
with the DeLaval milk meter MM25 or
an air-inlet. 3 105 Too high flow ...
from cup ... Stop alarm The milk flow recorded for one
quarter is exceedingly high. The
milk flow exceeds 10 kg per
minute. Restart the milking station.
If the problem persists, contact service
engineer.
There is probably something wrong
with the DeLaval milk meter MM25 or
an air-inlet.
3 106 Too high yield ...
from cup ... Stop alarm The milk yield from one teat is
exceeding an unreasonably high
value. Milk yield exceed 40 kg for
one teat. Check air inlet and milkmeter. In case
the fault remains contact the service
technician. Probably something wrong
with milkmeter or air inlet 3 106 Too high yield ...
