4.1.1 Fitting the MooMonitor+ Collars to the Cows
The MooMonitor+ collar comprises of the strap, the collar sleeve, the
retainer/locking ring, the collar weight, and the MooMonitor+ activity unit.
Fitting of the collar is vital to ensure the MooMonitor+ is giving accurate readings.
The collar must be a snug fit to ensure that all movements are recorded.
A loose fitting collar may increase the risk of the collar snagging on an obstruction
and/or become a choking hazard.
When fitting the MooMonitor+ to the cow, thread the collar through the weight to
the midpoint of the collar strap. Thread the locking ring into place over the weight.
Add the buckle onto one side of the weight and the MooMonitor+ to the opposite
side of the collar strap.
Important Notes:
Only staff adequately trained in procedures for handling livestock should secure
the MooMonitor to the cows.
Important Note:
Note: Always keep track of the MooMonitor+ serial number and CowID pairings.
The MooMonitor+ serial number is located on the rear of the Tag.
