2.4 Using the “Sample all” function in the AC.
When trouble shooting on the Herd Navigatorsystem the “sample all” function in the AC can be very
helpful.
This function ensures that all cows milked on a given milking point/vms are sampled. This will make it
possible to monitor and troubleshoot on more samples during the milkingsession
The sample all is in menu 424 in the AC,
Sampler index: determines the given sampler/vms that “sample all” should be applied to.
On VMS: index 1 = VMS-1, Index 2=VMS-2, ect.
On Parlour:index 0 = sampler node 40, Index 1= sampler node 41, ect.
Period: determines the no. of milking sessions that the “sample all” should be applied to. It‟s only
recommended to set this to 1 session, or OFF, to stop “sample all”
Prog: if set to yes progesterone measurements will be made on samples from this sampler / VMS.
LDH: if set to yes LDH measurements will be made on samples from this sampler / VMS.
BHB: if set to yes BHB measurements will be made on samples from this sampler / VMS.
Urea: if set to yes Urea measurements will be made on samples from this sampler / VMS.
OK: saves the selected settings for the given sampler/VMS..
NOTE: for using the “sample all” on more samplers/VMS each sampler / VMS has to be set individually.
