How does fence monitoring work?
1.
Something causes a drop in
voltage on the electric fence.
2.
The electric fence voltage
data is broadcast out from
the nearest Fence Node and
bounced up to 500 m (1/3
mile) from node to node
creating a shared network of
data across the farm.
3.
Once the data from the
nodes reaches the gateway
installed at a shed or barn it
is sent up into the cloud.
4.
When voltage drops, an alert
is automatically sent to you.
You can see this data on the
Datamars Livestock
Monitoring web or mobile
app.
5.
You can fix the electric fence.
