In the Configuration Options step you may choose how the schedule is going to run, as well as specify the setup steps and schedule mode to use in the project.
Parameter | Description | |
|---|---|---|
No Extension/Use Extension | Check Use Extension option to allow scripted changes to the reserves database, stockpile inventories, equipment performance, processing plant performance, and reporting fields. Contact your Alastri support representative for assistance with Site Specific Extensions. | |
No Drills/Use Drills | Turning on Use Drills option adds new equipment types and reserves fields to the project. Drill scheduling accounts for delays relating to blasted stocks, available real estate, and fleet logistics. For the Drilling setup and description of the Setup steps that will appear in the list if this option is enabled, refer to the TS. Drill Scheduling section. | |
No Known Parcels/Specify Known Parcels | By default, the project will only list material types that are imported with the reserves. The user may wish to specify some additional known parcels such as topsoil, or legacy stockpile inventory. | |
Embed Rapid Reserver/Do Not Embed Rapid Reserver | By default, scheduling inventories are exported from Rapid Reserver and imported into Tactical Scheduler. Toggling Embed Rapid Reserver option allows short term planners to edit the blast master during scheduling, without having to re-import the reserves. | |
No Reserves Hacking/Allow Reserves Hacking | In the case that the imported reserves are known to be incorrect or out of date, the user may choose to allow reserves hacking and directly edit the quantities and qualities of material in a block. | |
Constrain on Trucks/Optimise Products | These are the two modes of scheduling available to Tactical Scheduler users. See the description below: | |
Truck Constrained | Optimise products | |
Equipment stops when it runs out of hours. Stockpiles must be reclaimed manually. No automatic grade targeting. Recommended for users who need exactly 100% utilisation or manual stockpile control. | Equipment stops when it hits plan targets. There is no limit on equipment hours, it will overflow to reach target. Recommended for users who need exact product blending and automatic stockpile management. | |
If in the first setting the Use Extension option was activated, see the next section TS. Extension Source.
