Profit from unrivaled working speed and easier installation.
Nedap introduces the first of multiple innovations for 2018: the Nedap Velos software version 2018.1
Game-changing novelties and new insights within the Nedap COWcontrol™ software fully adapt the user interface to the dairy herd management style of the farmer and his team. A brand new dashboard, advanced worklists, herd performance trends and additional insights ensure they can perform daily tasks easier and faster than ever.
Attention sensitivity and voluntary waiting period settings have been added to the Heat Detection and Health Monitoring modules. These settings provide more flexibility and allow users to further tailor Nedap COWcontrol™ to specific protocols, farm situations and user preferences.
We have added a user friendly online web assistance function and made improvements to the system setup procedure.
The revolutionary wireless repeat function allows the VP4102 UHF Reader to serve as a wireless transmitter for Smarttag messages, expanding the reading range of the Nedap COWcontrol™ system. At the same time, it simplifies the technical configuration while reducing installation time and effort.
Nedap Velos 2018.1 is now released and available. Discover all the novelties and their benefits in detail below.
This new software version provides an unmatched user experience on all devices. It combines the most relevant dairy herd information with attractive visuals and intuitive actions, allowing users to work easily and efficiently.
A number of settings within the Heat Detection and Health Monitoring modules have been added or improved. This allows users to tailor attentions/alerts to their management style, increasing efficiency and ease of use.
From now on the user can set the voluntary waiting period (VWP) after birth for youngstock and postpartum for lactating cows. This setting can be used at the Heat Detection attention page to only show those cows on the worklist that are of interest to be bred. Users also have the flexibility to automatically sort cows within a certain insemination period (and not those in the VWP).
The heat attention sensitivity settings can now be adjusted quickly and clearly using sliders. As a result, farmers can perform a strategy how they desire. For example: Check all cows (high True Positive rate, more False Positive attentions) versus Blind insemination (low False Positive rate, backup protocol in place for missed heats).
The sensitivity of health attentions (urgent attentions, animals to check and group alerts) can also easily be adjusted with sliders.
These Nedap Velos user interface videos show how to work with our system and how the system works for farmers.
The new user-friendly online web support function can help if any questions arise. The ‘help’ button shows the information from the user manual based on where the user is at that moment. The information appears as an overlay directly into Velos.
Besides the online webhelp within Velos, the user manual is available as an online webpage.

It also simplifies the technical configuration while reducing installation time and effort. There is no need to wire the repeating UHF reader, which makes it extremely easy and fast to install, for any farm. It allows for a reading range of at least 200 meters indoor and 500 meters outdoor. What’s even better? It’s cost-effective.
