Dairy Farming
– The Take off indicator shows two red dashes when the take off neutral time is passed and milking
continues.
– The InTouch display shows one red dash on the left side at the end of the millking process. This indicates
that if the milk flow stays below the threshold during 10 seconds, the milk cluster will be removed
automatically.
Caution
During the milking the following situations can occur:
a. Milking must be done manually (see Manual milking mode (page 12)).
b. The cow kicks off the milk cluster (see Milk cluster kicked off (page 12)).
c. The attention light starts flashing red/white, the cow has a milk yield attention (see Milk yield
attention (page 12)).
7. In automatic mode milking stops automatically as soon as the take off procedure is finished. In manual
mode the milking stops when the Main button is pressed for a SHORT period.
The InTouch is in "Stop milking" mode:
– The attention light is white.
– The InTouch display shows alternately the cow number and the milk yield.
8. Press the Main button for a MEDIUM period to start the "Pre-wash" mode for this InTouch:
– The attention light is light blue.
– The InTouchU display shows 0000000.
– The Cluster LED is blinking light blue.
9. Press the Main button for a LONG period to start the "Washing" mode for all InTouch units:
In a row parlor only the row with this InTouch is washed. To wash all milking points, you have to start the
washing mode on an InTouch in the other row too.
– The attention light is dark blue.
– The InTouch display shows CLEAn.
– The Pulsation LED is blinking blue.
– The Cluster LED lights continously blue.
– The system checks that all InTouch units are no longer in milking mode before the washing mode
starts. If one or more InTouch units are still in milking mode, the LED above the Main button blinks
red and the washing is blocked.
– The washing cyclus lasts about 45 min. The duration of the washing cycle can be adjusted (see the
Nedap InTouch Installation Manual).
If the InTouch is in "Stop milking" mode and a new cow is identified, the milking cyclus starts at step 4.
Milking without cow recognition
If the attention light is continuously red and the display keeps showing 0000000 while the cow is waiting to be
milked, this means that the cow is not identified.
To start the milking manually:
1. Press the Main button for a SHORT period:
– The attention light is blinking red.
– The InTouchU display shows StArt.
2. Press the Main button for a SHORT period again:
– The attention light turns green.
– The milking starts.
