This Nedap Velos software version contains new and improved functionalities that provide new solutions, add valuable options to existing solutions and further increase the ease of use of Velos.

Nedap CowControl

Heat Detection and Health Monitoring

  • Calendar date report sometimes showed the same animal multiple times. This has been fixed.

  • Pregnant animals without a prior calving date (young stock) could get a "No heat" attention while they should not get one. This has been fixed.

General

  • Updated the Nedap disclaimer and EULA.

  • The network check in the service widget on the dashboard will no longer succeed if the local IP address of the VPU is not in a valid IP address range as specified by the Internet Engineering Task Force and Internet Assigned Numbers Authority’s ‘Private Network’ ranges.

    Valid ranges for local IP addresses are:

    • 10.0.0.0 through 10.255.255.255

    • 172.16.0.0 through 172.31.255.255

    • 192.168.0.0 through 192.168.255.255

    Although not advised to use the following range is also considered a valid local IP address:

    • 192.0.0.0 through 192.0.0.255

    If secure network mode is disabled it is now allowed to use IP-addresses outside these ranges. Please contact Nedap if secure network mode must be disabled because using such an IP-address is not possible for some reason.

  • Fixed following issues:

    • Velos did accept duplicate vpu-online domain names.

    • The setup wizard would upgrade Velos to the latest version and Velos notified the user that a new version was available, even if that version was not suitable for the setup.

    • Automatic discovery of secondary VPUs did not always work.

    • Configuring the secure network mode on secondary VPUs did not always work.

    • In very noisy environments the disturbed UHF communication with VP4102 repeaters could cause the VPU to get stuck.

Firmware

  • VP1801: v3.11.12

    • Prepared for RS232 communication. This is only available on VP1801 hardware version 5 and higher.

    • Added a setting to control the Output-5 as an output for a Velos behaviour component or an identification light.

    • Fix for wireless sync mode in dual antennas can’t uncheck HDX mode.

    • Fix for a vp1801-A the HDX option can’t be disabled in custom mode.

    • Fix for disabling antenna after a reboot when combined antenna is active.
