EPS Data Filtering

Filtering a VR view using EPS commands

Filtering EPS Schedule Data

Enhanced Production Scheduler allows you to filter your activities to show data relating to a particular object grouping, e.g. Stopes or complex solids, for example. EPS InTouch  will automatically detect the filtering settings made in the external EPS application and, where a schedule is linked, will immediately update the view in the EPS InTouch  data window to show only data that is relevant to the currently selected EPS filter.

 

Visualizing EPS Schedule Dependencies

This procedure assumes that the following conditions are met:

  • Sequenced wireframe data has been loaded into your Studio application.

  • The  EPS application is running.

  •  A connection to the active schedule in EPS has been made.

    Clicking Refresh on the EPS ribbon in your application will make a connection to the active schedule in EPS. 

  •  Your EPS project has been configured so that specific activity groups have been set up for filtering purposes (see your EPS online Help for more information).

The procedure for showing schedule-filtered information is quite short:

  1. In EPS, using the Task Filtering toolbar to select an activity group, e.g.:

  2. Your Studio OP view updates automatically to show only those activities belonging to the selected group.

You can 'float' the EPSTask Filteringtoolbar outside of the mainEPSapplication, so you could use it in the same screen area as the3Dwindow for rapid data filtering according to scheduled values.
