Introduction
Spider is interesting for any dairy farmer interested in automated feeding, regardless of company size. The Spider consists of
a SpiderServer with SpiderAntennas. The Spider can read 16 antennas, control 16 feed dispensers, and operate 12 air vents
within a 10 m range.
A motor can be connected to each exit. Think of a motor that dispenses the concentrate. The electron-
ics in a Spider box are capable of controlling four feeding stations each with a different type of feed. Using one control box,
one type of feed can be dispensed in a 2 x 8 milking parlour. For greater range and/or more outputs, the SpiderServer can
be expanded with one or more SpiderClients (same number of outputs as the SpiderServer).
The information in this manual is for farmers and technicians.
