Process tolerances

Use the Process tolerances tab to set process tolerances per hole diameter. BlastLogic will use the Default value for any undefined hole diameters.

During the design of a blast, idealised or vacuum conditions are in place. When you first introduce real world data to the setup, BlastLogic adjusts the design data to establish a point of reference. As you update the data in the setup, this data is compared with the point of reference (design) data.

A process tolerance defines an acceptable range for the new data to deviate from the design data. You can view these tolerances during drill validation and when generating reports. If the tolerance is exceeded, BlastLogic will notify the drill and blast engineer that the necessary action should be taken.

Adding a tolerance

Follow these steps to add a tolerance:

Select Add row. BlastLogic will add a new row to the table.

Select each cell in the row and enter the desired information.

Expand for more information on the per hole diameter tolerances.

You can define values for the following:

Term	Definition	Reports
Short drill depth error	The maximum tolerated difference between the target drill depth and the as-drilled depth, if the as-drilled drill depth is shorter than expected. If the error exceeds the limit set, BlastLogic will highlight the corresponding cell in red in the Validate Drilling table.	Drill Depth Accuracy report
Long drill depth error	The maximum tolerated difference between the target drill depth and the as-drilled depth, if the as-drilled drill depth is longer than expected. If the error exceeds the limit set, BlastLogic will highlight the corresponding cell in red in the Validate Drilling table.	Drill Depth Accuracy report
Collar error	The maximum tolerated difference between the as-drilled collar and the design drill collar. BlastLogic only considers the X and Y axes. If the error exceeds the limit set, BlastLogic will highlight the corresponding cell in red in the Validate Drilling table.	Drill Collar Accuracy report
Short collar Z error	The maximum tolerated difference between the as-drilled collar Z value and the design collar Z value, if the as-drilled collar Z value is less than the design collar Z value. If the error exceeds the limit set, BlastLogic will highlight the corresponding cell in red in the Validate Drilling table.	N/A
Long collar Z error	The maximum tolerated difference between the as-drilled collar Z value and the design collar Z value, if the as-drilled collar Z value is greater than the design collar Z value. If the error exceeds the limit set, BlastLogic will highlight the corresponding cell in red in the Validate Drilling table.	N/A
Setup error	The measurement of the error resulting from angle and bearing. The error is measured by placing the design and as-drilled hole in the same XYZ position (which removes the influence of XY and Z error), and using the user-defined depth (see Setup error vertical depth below). This allows the measurement of the horizontal distance between the design and as-drilled holes. The obtained distance value is solely based on the angle and bearing change, which can be then used as an error value and compared to the defined tolerance values.	Drilling Setup Accuracy report
Dip depth error	The maximum tolerated difference between the actual dip depth and the target dip depth (the previously recorded dip depth). For dip data entry, the cell is coloured in red when the recorded dip depth is more than the dip depth tolerance greater than the previous known depth.	N/A
Charge depth error	The maximum tolerated difference between the actual charge depth (after loading charge) and the target charge depth.	Pre-charging Depth Accuracy report Charge Placement Accuracy report Pattern Condition report
Backfill error	The maximum tolerated difference between the dip depth after backfilling and the target charge depth.	Backfill Compliance report

You can view the Validate Drilling panel by navigating to the Drilling ribbon and selecting Validate Drilling. In this panel, open the Validation tab to view the tolerances. For more information on this tool, see the Validation page.

Script builder
Use the Script builder tab to create table rows that form the hole display rule. Each row contains the following two sections:

Condition. This section allows you to define the conditions of a row. These conditions provide BlastLogic with criteria to categorise the holes.
Hole Display Icon. This section allows you to define the label, colour and text BlastLogic will assign to a hole, if the hole meets the corresponding row conditions.

Expand for information on creating conditions using the script builder.

To create conditions using the script builder, follow these steps:

Click . BlastLogic will add a row to the table.
Select the desired hole parameter from the Parameter column drop-down. In this drop-down, you can select one of the following hole property groups to use as a parameter:
- Hole ID
- Hole is abandoned
- Last known (depth, water length, wet sides length, temperature)
- Design
- Drilling
- Dipping
- Backfilling
- Charging
- Custom

Select the desired operator from the Operator column drop-down. The options in the drop-down can change depending on the parameter you define. For example, if the parameter you select is a numerical value, such as Drill design - depth, then the Operator drop-down will contain the following options:

equals
greater than
greater than or equal
less than
less than or equal

Expand for more information on the Operator drop-down options.

The table below summarises the options provided in the Operator and Criteria drop-down lists (that follow the parameter type you select).

Parameter type	Example parameter	Operator drop-down options	Criteria (example value)
A numerical property	Drill design - depth	equals greater than greater than or equal less than less than or equal	A numerical value in the following form: 5.000
A time period property	Drilling - start drilled time	is before is after	A date and time in the following format: 26/08/2022 3:04 PM
A property that contains multiple instances for each hole	Charging (reconciled) - deck quantities	any are equal to all are equal to none are equal to sum equals any are greater than or equal to all are greater than or equal to none are greater than or equal to sum is greater than or equal to any are less than or equal to all are less than or equal to none are less than or equal to sum is less than or equal to	A numerical value in the following form: `5.000`
A property containing a sequence of numbers	Hole ID	contains does not contain equals	A sequence of numbers in the following form: 123
A string property	Charging (loaded) - primer-loading crew names	any contain all contain none contain any are equal to all are equal to none are equal to	A string in the form of a name or comment: John Smith Abandoned due to redrill.
A boolean property	Drilling - is validated	equals	Select or clear the Criteria checkbox as desired.

Enter the desired value into the Criteria column cell.

BlastLogic will evaluate the value you enter into the Criteria column based on the option that you select from the Operator drop-down. For example, if you set the Parameter drop-down to Drill design - depth, the Operator drop-down as less than or equal to and the Criteria as 5, then a hole will meet this condition if its drill design depth is less than or equal 5 m.
Optionally, add multiple conditions to the row. This allows you to add more detail to the rule, as a hole must satisfy all of the conditions in a row to be assigned the corresponding colour and label. To do this, follow these steps:
1. Select the desired row and click Add condition. BlastLogic will add a second condition, titled Condition 2, to the table.
  
  BlastLogic relates two or more conditions with an AND operator. For example, if you have Condition 1 and Condition 2 in one row, BlastLogic will assign holes to that row that satisfy both these conditions.
2. Select the desired information in the Parameter and Operator drop-downs and enter the appropriate value into the Criteria cell.
3. Continue adding conditions and the appropriate information as desired.
Select a colour for the label using the Colour column field. BlastLogic will colour the hole icon with this colour in the tablet view.
Enter the desired legend text in the Legend Text column cell. BlastLogic will display this text in the tablet view legend.
Add and configure additional rows by repeating these steps. Adding more rows allows you to create additional sets of conditions with corresponding colours and labels.
Optionally, rearrange the order of the rows by selecting the desired row and clicking the and buttons at the bottom of the panel.

BlastLogic will compare each hole to the conditions of each row, in the order that the rows appear in the table.

Important: Make sure that the conditions you want BlastLogic to check first are in the first row of the table. For example, if a hole meets the conditions of the first and second row of the rule, BlastLogic will always assign it to the first row.
Click Build. BlastLogic will populate the Script tab with the code for the hole display rule.

Script
Use the Script tab to create a hole display rule script from scratch, using the coding language JavaScript. If you need additional help creating a script, visit our support site (Maptek Support) to contact a member of our technical services team.

Click OK. BlastLogic will add the tablet hole display rule to the table.

Other operations

To remove a tablet hole display rule, select the rule and click .
To edit an existing tablet hole display rule, select Edit in the end column of the rule row.
To clone a tablet hole display rule, select the rule and click .
To reorder the tablet hole display rules, select the rule you wish to move and click the and buttons.

Validation settings

Use the Validation settings tab to set criteria to control how users perform validation and association of drill data events and design holes. You can use either the BlastLogic Integration Service (BLIS) ( a web service that allows you to work with drill navigation systems), or the Validate Drilling panel, which is a part of the desktop application to auto-validate and associate holes (see Validate Drilling for more information).

This tab contains the following sections that you can edit with the corresponding fields or radio buttons:

Drilling auto-association: BlastLogic will search for holes in the database with target collar values within the radius you set in the Search radius field.
Drilling auto-validation: BlastLogic will validate as-drilled data if it falls within the set variations.
- Collar variation: The difference between the as-drilled and design X and Y collar values. The collar variation is usually wider than the collar error defined in the Process tolerances tab.
- Diameter variation: The difference between the as-drilled and design diameter values.
- Setup error variation: The difference in the as-drilled toe and design toe, if it was drilled at the standard depth.
- Collar Z variation: The difference between the as-drilled collar Z and design collar Z. The collar Z variation is usually wider than the collar Z error defined in the Process tolerances tab.
- Depth variation: The difference between the as-drilled depth and design drill depth.
Drilling source preferences: In this section, use the radio buttons to specify whether you wish to source different types of drilling data from the Tablet or the BlastLogic Integration System (BLIS).
Drilling auto-adjustment: BlastLogic automatically adjusts the as-drilled collar Z, based on the settings you select in this section. You can choose to leave the collar Z as is or adjust the toe location or drill depth, using the corresponding radio buttons.

Click OK or Apply to save these settings.

Setup error vertical depth	The depth at which BlastLogic calculates setup errors.
Backfill checkdip percentage	The proportion of backfilled holes that require checkdipping on the backfill sheet.
Harness wire slack percentage	The percentage of additional harness wire used when connecting holes in a tie-up due to slack in the wire. You can use this definition in tie-up design.
