Using model transfer file (*.trax)

You can save the differences between two Vissim networks to a model transfer file (*.trax)(Creating model transfer files). Generally, one network models the base, while the other network models the target. One of the networks can be the one currently opened.

You apply the model transfer file (*.trax) to a network file (Applying model transfer files). The network file must be opened in the Network editor. When applying the model transfer file (*.trax), you transfer its network data (*.trax) to the network opened in the Network editor.

Application example for Scenario management

You can transfer two network variants to Scenario management: The network with the base is placed under Scenario management. You then apply the model transfer file to this network. This is how the second network selected is created:

1.  Generate the model transfer file (*.trax) based on network A and B (Creating model transfer files).

2.  Then you place network A under Scenario management as scenario 1 (Placing a network under scenario management)..

3.  Copy Scenario 1.

4.  Rename the copied scenario to Scenario 2.

5.  Open scenario 2 in the Network editor.

6.  Apply the model transfer file to scenario 2 (Applying model transfer files).
