6:1:6:6:2 NO RF SENDING
No RF sending is defined by the numbers of
hours since last sending. Setting range: 4 -
48, default is 8.
- Reporting can be set to start close to
expected heat, setting range is 0-4.
- Days in milk > 40 means that reporting
will start 40 days after calving. Setting
range: 0-200 days.
- Days since insem is by default "–". Setting
range: 0- 200
Pregnant, cull or high active (+ / ++/ +++)
cows can be excluded (default) or included.

6:1:6:6:3 RELATIVE ACTIVITY
The picture shows the default values.
The relative activity is expressed by the %
value of the animal’s actual activity divided
by expected activity. In this display it can be
defined between 0 and 250 %.
The relative activity is defined on the first
two rows. > - means that the parameter is
neglected. A value between 0 and 250 %
can be set, meaning that cows showing an
activity lower than the preset value will not
be reported.
On the second row the value < 60 means
that cows showing a relative activity less
than 60 % will be reported.
The high activity probability gives an
estimation on how valid the relative activity
value is for the cow. The probability is
calculated from the variation of the cow’s
normal activity. The lower the high activity
probability is, the more likely is it that the
cow is showing a true low activity.
High activity probability is defined just like
relative activity. Setting range: 0 - 99,9.
Days since insem is by default "–". Setting
range: 0 - 999
Days in milk is also by default set to "–".
Setting range is 0-200.
Pregnant or cull cows can be excluded
(default) or included.
