7.2.2.3 Creating transmitter numbers and automatically registering calves
To shorten the registration process even more, you can specify that calves can also be regis-
tered if their transmitter numbers are not known in the system. This eliminates the need for read-
ing or manual entry of transmitter numbers. In this case, if an unknown transmitter number is
registered in the identification unit, this transmitter number is automatically created in the sys-
tem and a new animal number is issued and registered at the same time.
Note: When newly creating transmitters and animal numbers, the animal number will either be
produced consecutively or as a part of the transmitter number (see 7.1.5 "Assigning animal
numbers" - 76).
Proceed as follows to create transmitter numbers and automatically register calves:
1. Navigate via > Animal management > Registration to the Automatic sub-menu.
2. In Mode select the All option.
3. In Group, choose the group in which you want to automatically register the calves.
7.3 Canceling animals or animal groups
Individual calves or a group of calves that are no longer being fed according to the plan must
be removed from the pen compartment and their registration canceled. The same applies to
calves whose feeding plan has expired.
7.3.1 Canceling individual animals
You cancel an individual animal's registration as follows:
1. Navigate via > Animal management > Cancellation to the Animals sub-menu.
2. Select the desired animal number.
3. In the Plan end menu, you check how much longer the calf is to be fed according to the plan.
4. In the MP menu, you can check how much milk powder the calf has consumed from the start
of registration to its cancellation.
5. Confirm Cancel? by choosing , to cancel the calf’s registration.
NOTICE!
There is a risk of malnutrition if calves do not receive any feed.
Malnutrition can cause impaired growth and development, increased susceptibility to illness or
even death of the calves.
► Inform the end user that he/she must provide the canceled calves with feed using an alter-
native method.
Note: If you have chosen the value All or Available for the automatic registration mode, the end
user should remove unregistered calves from the bay, because otherwise they will be automat-
ically registered again.
