Running the automatic feeder
57
Note:
Those calves that are to be removed should only be deregistered after they have left the
pen, since they will otherwise be automatically reregistered when they enter the box and will
then be returned to the start of the feeding plan.
6.3.2.2.1 Creating transmitter numbers and automatically registering calves
In order to shorten the registration process even more, you can specify that calves can also
be registered if their transmitter numbers are not known in the system. This eliminates the
need for reading or manual entry of transmitter numbers. In this case, if an unknown transmit-
ter number is registered in the identification unit, this transmitter number is automatically cre-
ated in the system and a new animal number is issued and registered at the same time.
Note:
When creating new transmitters and animal numbers, the animal number is assigned
consecutively or as a part of the transmitter number (see
Animal number assignment
). Clar-
ify whether this kind of number assignment is actually what the end user wants.
Proceed as follows to create transmitter numbers and automatically register calves:
1. Choose
> Animal management > Register
to go to the
Automatic
submenu.
2. Select the
All
option in
Mode
.
3. In
Group
, choose the group in which you want to automatically register the calves.
Note:
Calves
without collars
may never be in the pen. They could push other animals out of
the way and steal remaining amounts.
6.3.3
Canceling animals or animal groups
Individual calves or a group of calves that are no longer being fed according to the plan must
be removed from the pen compartment and canceled. The same applies to calves whose feed-
ing plan has expired.
6.3.3.1 Cancelling individual animals
You cancel an individual animal as follows:
1. Choose
> Animal management > Cancel
to go to the
Animal
submenu.
2. Select the desired animal number.
3. In
Plan end
, you check how much longer the calf is to be fed according to the plan.
4. In
MP
, you can check how much milk powder the calf has consumed from registration to
cancellation.
