How do I block feeding for a certain period?

Modified on Mon, 24 Feb at 1:46 PM

Optionally one or more blocking periods can be created for a feed station or a location. This can be useful when for example a group of cows are milked, and the other animals should not eat during milking.


Blocking feed at feed station

  1. Go to Settings > Feeding > Blocking.
  2. Select Add block periods for station.
  3. Select the Cow Feeder from the dropdown list.
  4. Fill in the start and end time of the first block period. E.g. from 06:00 till 08:00 AM.
  5. Fill in more block periods, if required.
  6. Click Submit.


Blocking feed for location

  1. Go to Settings > Feeding > Blocking.
  2. Select Add block periods for location.
  3. Select the location from the dropdown list.
  4. Fill in the start and end time of the first block period. E.g. from 06:00 till 08:00 AM.
  5. Fill in more block periods, if required.
  6. Click Submit.
