7.1.7
Deleting the transmitter number when canceling an animal
Generally, the collars (or earmarks) with the respective transmitters remain at the organization
and are reused after the calf is taken out of the pen and its registration is canceled. For this rea-
son, the default setting when canceling the registration of a calf is to not delete its transmitter
number. If the calf's transmitter is, however,
not
reused but rather stays with the calf, (lifelong
earmark), make the following setting in the feeder:
1. Navigate via
> Animal management > Cancellation
to the
Settings
sub-menu.
2. Select the
yes
option in the
Delete no.
menu
When a calf's registration is canceled, the transmitter number is also deleted along with the
animal number. This prevents an accumulation of unused transmitter numbers, which would
use up the available storage space.
