7.2.3 RequestUnloading

The signature of this Method is specified below. Table 4 specifies the Arguments and AddressSpace representation, respectively.

Signature

RequestUnloading(

[out] 0:Boolean RequestUnloadingAcknowledged );

Table 4 – RequestUnloading Method Arguments

Argument	Description
RequestUnloadingAcknowledged	The RequestUnloadingAcknowledged property describes the acknowledging of the unloading command. True – OK False – RequestError – Unloading could not be confirmed

7.2.4 ObjectType Description

The RequestUnloading method call indicates that some hauling machine requests the unloading operation. After successful confirmation, the unloading procedure starts.

The ExclusionZone property describes the area that haulage machines, which are to be unloaded, are not allowed to enter when approaching the rock crusher.
