String Files

On the Task Sources tab of the Schedule Definition form, specify the sources from which the tasks of the schedule will be generated.

When you select String Files as a task source, the Scheduler requires mine design strings and polygons which typically define underground features such as drives. The strings and polygons in the nominated file(s) are extruded to create mining block solids (wireframes).

Each generated block solid is then intersected with the Reference Block Model (chosen on the “Tasks” tab), and attributes are added for the elements and material bins. For example, a grade attribute is calculated and added for each element defined in the reference block model. Each tunnel solid is then imported as a task into the schedule.

Name

Optionally, specify the name of the wireframe set.

Code

Specify a code for the extruded wireframes. The code is used to build names for fields in report data sources and attributes for the saved wireframes.
