Coupling/Decoupling
The handling times for coupling and decoupling trailers are displayed in the Work steps > Coupling/Decoupling menu. The trailer type and location (building, hall, station, storage location) are used as criteria for the time specification. Handling times can be created, edited, and deleted.
Description of the Interaction Elements: Coupling/Decoupling
The following table describes the columns that are available with handling times for coupling and decoupling trailers.
| Column | Description |
|---|---|
Trailer type |
Name of the trailer for which the handling time is valid. |
Building |
Name of the building for which the handling time is valid. |
Hall |
Name of the hall for which the handling time is valid. |
Station |
Name of the station for which the handling time is valid. |
Storage location |
Name of the storage location for which the handling time is valid. |
Coupling time (sec) |

Creating a New Handling Time for Coupling/Decoupling
New handling times for coupling and decoupling trailers can be created and shown in the overview of handling times for coupling and decoupling.
|
If the handling times for coupling and decoupling are not dependent on the location where the handling takes place, no location must be specified when defining the handling time. If the handling times in a hall (e.g. hall 101) deviate from the general handling times due to local circumstances, only Hall 101 must be specified when defining the handling time. New handling times can be defined without selecting a trailer type and location. These handling times are generally valid and are always used if there are no specific handling times for the trailer type or location of the transport order. |
