1 111 Cow not
identified
Deviation The cow has not been identified
within the preset time and will be
released.
If identification fails for all cows, contact
service engineer.
Service engineer only: The time the system
tries to identify a cow can be changed in the
management software (VMS Config).
If the cow(s) for which the identification
failed are known, check the transponder(s):
Remove the transponder from the cow,
press “Accept cow” on the touch screen,
activate the photocell until the entrance
gate is closed, then put the transponder
close to the transponder. The cow number
associated with transponder should now be
shown on the touch screen.
If this alarm appears several times a week,
make sure that the transponder collars are
loose enough for the transponders to hang
vertically from the neck of the cows.
Otherwise, the transponder reader might
have difficulty in reading the transponder
number.
