The cable in one of our curtains broke so I tried to join it but it's not as good as the other curtains when reading. Seems like it's down in power. Got some automotive cable and used it to join the break and it appears to work much better but not perfect.

It's a shocking price for a new curtain when the cable in it is less than £15.

Anyone know how much a new style panel is that reads the tags also?

That was two panels and the new style processor?

I was wondering what are the price of the panels without the new Delpro Processor?

That was just the two panels, bit of stall work to make a funnel, 200 tags and fitting. Already had an alpro processor.

Bloody hell. That's ridiculous. I heard a guy last year was getting the panels and processor for around £6500.

Anyhow, I heard a local guy has asked his Delaval agent for two new panels to go with his existing Alpro Processor so I am gonna find out his quote.

Anyone know how to confirm milk yield on 1 place (last place) then back cow out and add 1 new cow without opening front gate. F4 confirms milk yield but when you bring in next cow and enter her number it still shows milk yield from last cow. 1 extra cow in a group is a pain.

Put a keen one on first on her own?

Hi, does anyone know how to return this to normal? We had two do this after a power cut. Last time agent put a code in but can’t remember what he said it was
 
F79[emoji667]then you’ll need to add the passcode normally 6285 if asked, then manually add the mpc number. To find out the mpc number press F79 [emoji667]on the one either side and it’ll tell you. It looks like the battery has gone in you mpc so it’s unable to store its identity with the bus route, probably need to do this every time the power goes off.Hope this makes sense
