Note: In vertical lift rapid exit solutions, special consideration must be given to protecting the
antenna cables from bending when the rail is lifted/lowered during operation, and from
contact with the cows, see APPENDIX 1 for solutions to this.
Example 2: Overhead Mounting in Parallel Parlor with Wall Mounted Feeders
The example below illustrates brackets attached to a bar that runs across the top of the feeding
troughs.
Antenna Location
The antennas are mounted as close as possible to the troughs, so that the ear tags come into range
of the correct antenna while the cow eats from the trough.
