Smart Barn Monitoring Made Simple

A new generation of alarm technology has been introduced by AP, offering improved monitoring capabilities for livestock producers. The advanced system leverages cellular networks or existing farm Wi-Fi to monitor up to eight zones, providing comprehensive insights into barn conditions.  

Producers can integrate compatible sensors to track vital parameters like temperature, water, and power, ensuring efficient and reliable management. Additionally, the AP system seamlessly connects with other barn management tools, enabling a streamlined approach to operations. 

The AP system is equipped with upgraded data gateway hardware, offering multiple connectivity options. This allows it to function as both a monitoring tool and an internet access point, enhancing connectivity for other products.  

Producers can remotely access real-time data through a dedicated AP web portal or mobile app, giving them control over their barns from any location. 

An added benefit is the AP system’s ability to issue alerts during power outages, ensuring critical conditions are addressed promptly. The enhanced connectivity includes next-generation technology, offering faster and more reliable performance. 

Key features include customizable notification settings, real-time condition monitoring, and reduced startup costs compared to traditional systems. Additionally, producers benefit from peace of mind, as the system eliminates concerns about battery life and ensures their livestock’s safety. 

This innovative alarm system prioritizes reliability and ease of use, empowering producers to monitor and manage their barns effectively.

2025 is starting out with a bang... thankfully, no one is hurt but wow it's been eventful. Sunday chores were quiet and relaxing, despite fighting the cold... until I was on my way back into the house and discovered a hunter running his dogs on our property with the intent to hunt coyotes (without permission).
