Daily Events: These events are always generated at 24:00h (or as soon as the data for this period is available on the server) if a problem has occurred on the respective day.

Hourly Events: These events are generated every hour on the hour (or as soon as the data for this period is available on the server) if a problem has occurred within the respective hour.

Sample Events: Whenever new data is sent to the server it is always checked for any incidence of a sample-based event. If such an event is detected, it is immediately displayed in Messenger.

Climate Sensor Events: Climate Sensor Events are evaluated on a sample event basis with a maximum of one warning a day issued per sensor and event type.

Additionally, a user can have “read-only”-status. This type of user can look up information but cannot make any modifications.

The insemination task list includes a visual insemination window enabling you to see the ideal insemination time at a glance. The insemination window comprises the following phases:

1. Earliest insemination: As long as the ideal insemination time isn’t available yet, a grey field with the earliest possible insemination time is displayed.
2. Start: As soon as the actual insemination window is available, a grey field with its starting time is displayed.

When the actual insemination window begins, the color of the field changes and information is shown as follows:

3. Green: During the green phase, insemination is recommended (start of insemination window until 6 hours after the start).
4. Yellow: During this phase, a successful insemination is already less probable. However, it could still be successful (6 to 10 hours after the beginning of the insemination window).
5. Red: We do not recommend inseminating cows during this phase (10 to 12 hours after the start of the insemination window).

In phases 3 to 5, an arrow indicates which phase you are currently in. For a better overview, phases that are already over change color.

The insemination window is no longer displayed after 36h in the dashboard. You can always access past insemination windows in the message list.

You can access the heat index via
