The PC is connected to the milking robot and the CRS+ in the tank room via the T4C Network to make a fully
integrated network. It can also be connected to the internet via a modem.
The Time for Cows (T4C) farm management software installed on the PC maintains records for each cow and
sends milking, feeding and cleaning information to the milking robot (X-link) and the CRS+ in the tank room.
