To detect heat accurately, Velos must know when to generate heat attentions. Correct configuration helps detect heats on time while limiting false attentions. 

How Heat Detection Attentions Are Determined

Velos creates a heat attention when:

• Activity exceeds the configured threshold.
• This higher activity continues across multiple consecutive 2-hour periods.
• The Velos heat detection algorithm also considers herd group behavior to reduce false-positive attentions.

How to Adjust Heat Sensitivity

Use the following steps to adjust heat detection attentions:

1. Select Settings from the menu.

2. Under Heat detection, select Attentions.

3. Adjust the Sensitivity slider:

   • Lower sensitivity: Use when animals show strong and obvious heat behavior. This reduces unnecessary attentions.

   • Higher sensitivity: Use when animals show subtle heat behavior. 

     Note

     A higher sensitivity may lead to more false attentions.
     A lower sensitivity may result in missed heats.

4. Under Show attentions, set how many hours a heat attention remains visible.

5. Select Submit to save your changes.
