Managing Cows and IceQubes
7.1
Attaching IceQubes to Cows
When attaching IceQubes for the first time the best method to organise your data is to create a
manual list of which cows (i.e freeze brand numbers) have been given which IceQubes.
Many farmers fill out a spreadsheet with this information. The date and time of attachment should
be included.
Cow Number
IceQube Number
Date attached
Time attached
IceRobotics can upload this spreadsheet into CowAlert for you to make the initial association easier.
Note: If you wish to make the cow to IceQube associations yourself, you must create the list of cow
numbers in CowAlert first. Once the list of cows is created it is a simple task to match the cow to the
IceQube see section 7.4, adding a new cow to CowAlert.
