concept (status) that describes the action to wait for the interlocks or sequence made by the subject (CHE) that is going to perform an order type cargo between the Moving to Collect and Ready to Collect activities.

TIC Description

Further Detail

O

Queuing To Collect is true between the moment the subject reaches the queuing (geofence) area and the moment the subject reaches the laden start location (the origin position of the cargo for the cycle process included in the order, usually called pick location). This queuing area usually is next to the laden start location and must be defined by the terminal. The subject (CHE) will usually be idling (idle) within this area but in case it is not necessary to wait for any interlock then it could be just working and queuing will not last.

The start of Queuing To Collect is the end of the Moving to Collect activities and the end is just when the CHE is Ready to Collect for the first time.

The Queuing To Collect state is not mandatory and it may happen that it does not exist for a certain terminal. It is an extra step introduced for terminals that have the possibility/the need to measure the time the subject has reached the proximity of the laden position.

Specific cases, from the equipment point of view:

  • STS: The Ship-to-shore spreader stays (idle or working) without cargo (unlocked spreader) within a safe area, after the Moving To Collect activity, where it can wait for cargo or any other interlock. Usually, this area is over the land-side portal beam for back-reach operations and the seaside portal beam for between-lane operations. An STS with two trolleys could be performing two job-stepping steps at the same time, so we recommend defining the subject by trolley and not by CHE.

  • TT/AGV: The Terminal Tractor or the AGV stays (idle or working) without cargo (slot unlocked) within a safe area, after the Moving To Collect activity, where it can wait for cargo or any other interlock. Usually, this area is next to the transfer area.

  • RTG/RMG/ARMG/ASC: The Gantry crane stays (idle or working) without cargo (unlocked) within a safe area, after the Moving To Collect activity, where it can wait for cargo or any other interlock. Usually, this area is over the first row next to the truck lane/wagon/row but may be different for loading or discharging operations.

  • SC/SHC: The Strad or Shuttle stays (idle or working) without cargo (unlocked) within a safe area, usually next to the location in the yard or transfer zone where it has to pick up the cargo. It queues in cases where it doesn't have access or needs to wait for an interlock.

Example

M

A message from the TOS which confirms the job-step status of the terminal truck 01 from the perspective of the order, che and driver:

tos.@.jobinstruction.@.order.@2343.movingtocollect.status.output.actual.value: FALSE.

tos.@.jobinstruction.@.order.@2343.queuingtocollect.status.output.actual.value: TRUE

tos.@.jobinstruction.@.order.@2343.readytocollect.status.output.actual.value: FALSE

tos.@.jobinstruction.@.order.@2343.movingtodeliver.status.output.actual.value: FALSE

tos.@.jobinstruction.@.order.@2343.queuingtodeliver.status.output.actual.value: FALSE

tos.@.jobinstruction.@.order.@2343.readytodeliver.status.output.actual.value: FALSE

tos.@.jobinstruction.@.order.@2343.che.output.actual.id: TT01

 

Optionally the information could be duplicated under the “che” subject. If there are a lot of elements in the che array and subsequently in the same message then it is remended to use the array identification after the “id”

tos.@.che.@TT01.movingtocollect.status.output.actual.value: FALSE

tos.@.che.@TT01.queuingtocollect.status.output.actual.value: TRUE

tos.@.che.@TT01.readytocollect.status.output.actual.value: FALSE

tos.@.che.@TT01.movingtodeliver.status.output.actual.value: FALSE

tos.@.che.@TT01.queuingtodeliver.status.output.actual.value: FALSE

tos.@.che.@TT01.readytodeliver.status.output.actual.value: FALSE

Introduction to concept type “job-stepping”:

The concepts type job-stepping describes a status (what does or is the subject) related only to concepts (action) that “moves” cargo. The objective of this type of concept is to define what type of activity the CHE is doing to move the cargo. There are 6 basic sub processes to perform a move:

  • Moving to Collect

  • Queuing to Collect

  • Ready to Collect

  • Moving to Deliver

  • Queuing to Deliver

  • Ready to Deliver

All the steps are optional and would depend on the order. For one specific order, only one Job-stepping concept can be “true” at the same time.

TT order job stepping for Vessel load - 4 job steps example

TT order job stepping for Vessel discharge- 6 job steps example, geofence available

 

The https://tic40.atlassian.net/l/cp/S8dYAjXu (instruction to execute a sequence of steps) is the natural subject of the job-stepping, so we will include by default the concepts for each step under “order” but these concepts can be used with other subjects like CHE, user, cargo, etc.
