  • Should activity meters be attached to the leg or the neck of animals?

    Attaching the activity meter to the leg causes problems such as difficulty fitting, shortening the product’s life, and harming the animal. ACTIMOO recommends that the activitymeter be worn around the necks of animals.

  • Does it start working as soon as I plug in the activity meters?

    Every animal has different behavior. To understand the animal, we must monitor the animal’s movement for a certain period of time. Within 5 days, the activity meter will be ready for estrus detection.

  • How do you diagnose estrus with the activity meter? What is your success rate in diagnosing estrus?

    ACTIMOO tracks your animal’s activity. During estrus, animal’s activity increases. In sub-estrus, the animal activity is detected and recorded even when you cannot notice any activity. ACTIMOO’s success varies depending on the farm standards and animal’s health. The ideal success rate in a farm is over 80%.

  • Can I install Actimoo on my own?

    Installing ACTIMOO is a reasonably straightforward process. The farmer can easily install it without the need for any assistance. ACTIMOO’s User Manual and Installation Guide, which is included in the box, will guide you with the process.

  • Does the activity meter work on tied animals? I tie my animals while milking them. Would that cause a problem?

    When it comes to detecting estrus in animals that are constantly tied, tying animals will result in a decreased activity that usually increases during the heat cycle. However, it’s still possible to detect estrus. Tying animals due to the milking process do not pose a problem.

  • Does the activity meter work on heifers?

  • Do I need to track the system continuously?

  • Do I need an internet connection for the system to work?
