WARNING!
Risk of injury and death!
During assembly, make sure that all supplied electrical components are assembled outside the
animal area, otherwise they could be damaged. Neglect of this can lead to significant material
damage as well as serious injuries to animals and humans or even death.
1. Install the pushbutton or the remote control near the feeding box.

Connecting the antennas
3.6.1
Installing the antennas
NOTICE!
There is a risk of the antenna cables being damaged.
►
Install the antenna cables in such a way that they cannot be damaged by the animals. Ob-
serve the separate operating manual for the antennas.
Install the antennas as follows:
1. Keep the distance between the antenna and transmitter as small as possible, no more than
15 - 25 cm. The range of the antenna is, depending on the version, 15 - 25 cm.
1.1.
If necessary, block the area next to the feeding box. This is the only way to prevent a
situation in which feed for a calf outside of the feeding box is prepared but the calf
does not receive it.
NOTICE!
There is a risk of malnutrition if calves do not receive any feed.
Malnutrition can cause impaired growth and development, increased susceptibility to illness or
even the death of your calves.
2. Check the range of the aerials using the aerial test (see 5. "Setup" - 59).
Note:
If 2 calves are identified simultaneously by one aerial, animal identification will be in-
terrupted for both calves.
2.1.
The distance between 2 antennas should be approx. 100 cm to avoid any range over-
lapping.
2.2.
In case duplicates or misidentification occurs, shield the antennas using grounded
metal plates.
Note:
In order to use winter feed plans, a MultiReader detector with a temperature sensor must
be installed at feeding box 1. From January 1, 2013 every MultiReader detector is equipped with
this sensor by default. You can check whether your MultiReader detector is equipped with a
temperature sensor under
Feeding > Plans > Winter feeding plans
(see the chapter "Feeding
> Winter feeding plans" in the automatic feeder's operating instructions).
