Milking Plant System, Computer-Implemented Method, Computer Program and Non-Volatile Data Carrier for configuring an entire milking plant

Via at least one network (130), a remote server (110) sends configuration data (CF) to a local server (120) at a farm (150) having a milking plant system with a set of farm components (141, 142, 143). Each of the farm components (141, 142, 143) is operatively connected to a respective controller (C1, C2, C3) that is configurable by a set of configuration parameters comprised in the configuration data (CF). In response to receiving the configuration data (CF), the local server (120) transmits a respective set of configuration parameters (CF1, CF2, CF3) to each of the respective controllers (C1, C2, C3). In response to receiving the set of configuration parameters (CF1, CF2, CF3) each of the respective controllers (C1, C2, C3) sets a configuration of the controller (C1, C2, C3) in accordance with the respective set of configuration parameters (CF1, CF2, CF3) for that controller (C1, C2, C3). Thus, the farm components of the milking plant system can be configured and upgraded in a convenient and efficient manner.
