Abstract: The operation of the Truck Loading Facilities in the United States and around the world have undergone a great deal of change in the last thirty years. Systems have evolved from relay magic and keylock systems to discrete controllers with hard wired processors, to central processing systems to Distributed Process Control. In the early days of terminal automation systems, systems were designed with a specific function in mind with no thought given to communication with other devices. Once they were in place It was very difficult and expensive to make changes to them. In those days a facility may have had three or four separate systems, depending on the operation. One sy.stem may have been for supervision and control of the pumps and manifold valves another may have been u.sed for monitoring the storage tanks another may have been u.sed to control the delivery of the product.
