Finish Time calculations
The Finish Time calculated by Cargomaster would be dependent on factors
like Loadrate and the actual filling degree/percentage. Normally, the Finish
Time is based upon the settings for the HiHi alarm. However, if both the HiHi
and Hi alarms are set (on) and the difference between these two values exceed
4%, the Hi alarm level (the lowest value) will be referenced. This means that if
setting the Hi alarm to 70%, also the Finish Time will be estimated to 70%
filling level.
If both HiHi and Hi alarms are OFF, 98% will be used as reference.
Finish time for discharge will use zero level as reference.
Which value is actually used, is displayed in the Tank Information (Right-click
any tank), on the Alarm Tab page, see Screenshot 16 below.
Also note that finish time will not be calculated in a Planning condition.
Screenshot 16 Value used for Finish time calculations shows in the bottom of the Tank
Information Alarm Tab
Partial load or discharge operations
CARGOMASTER® provides some tools to assist during partial load or
discharge operations. In the ValueTable, set one of the columns to show User-
Special–Part.Vol or Part.Weight prior to loading or discharging.
The column will count upwards for loading and downwards for discharge. By
entering any value, the column will count from the value entered.
Changing the values here will not affect the level gauging in any way.
As for Finish Time calculations, Alarm settings will also here affect how
remaining volumes are calculated.
