Troubleshooting

If you are having problems with your Haulage Network, check the following:

• Objects must connect precisely. When you draw a new road on your network, make sure it connects to the road it intersects with. Roads that cross each other without snapping are not treated as connected.

Possible Issue #1: Scenario Setup (Haulage)

Maximum Profile Grade and Maximum Profile Distance settings will limit your all elements of your haul road which includes your network. For example, in the image below Maximum Profile Grade is set to 10%. If your haulage network includes elements that are 12.5%, they will not function until this setting is adjusted to 13%.

Possible Issue #2: Haulage Network Design/Creation

There are several requirements for roads to connect with each other but the general rule is this. If you are creating a new shape (road) to attach to an existing one, always attach to points (not lines).

Possible Issue #3: Haulage Network Settings

For each part of the road in your network, there are network shape properties. If you wish for two points of your haul to be connected by a haulage network, all network shapes along the path must share source, destination, process and equipment attributes.

Possible Issue #4: Logic Rule Setup

Similar to Issue #3, each Rule in your Logic has Source, Destination, Equipment and Process settings that must match your haulage network.

Possible Issue #5: Logic Network Attach/Detach Points

Attach Rules and Detach Rules possess an additional step which controls the fuzzy positioning (blue sphere) around the attachment/detachment point. In the example image below, if the truck required an 11% grade either up or down to meet the road, it would not currently be working.
