Defining vehicle attribute decisions

Notes:

You can specify that you need not press the Ctrl key when adding network objects (Right-click behavior and action after creating an object).
For some network objects there are windows in which the attributes of a network object can be defined and edited. There are lists for this, for all network objects. You can choose whether you want to open a window, a list or neither of the two for the definition of network objects in the Network Editor (Right-click behavior and action after creating an object).

1. On the network object sidebar, click Vehicle Attribute Decisions.

2. Hold down the Ctrl key and right-click the desired position of the vehicle attribute decision on the desired lane of the link or connector.

A dark red bar is inserted. The Vehicle Attribute Decisions list opens.

3. Edit the attributes:

Short name	Long name	Description
No.	Number	Unique number of vehicle attribute decision
Name	Name	Name of the vehicle attribute decision
AllVehTypes	All vehicle types	If the option is selected, all vehicle types account for the vehicle attribute decision. The option All Vehicle Types is a virtual vehicle class that automatically includes all new vehicle types and vehicle types that have not been assigned a vehicle class yet.
VehClasses	Vehicle classes	Vehicle classes for which the vehicle attribute decision applies
Attr	Attribute	Click the symbol: Select the pedestrian attribute for which a value is to be set or taken from a distribution defined in Vissim. Attribute is independent from time intervals or vehicle classes. Attribute can be user-defined (Using user-defined attributes).
ValueAssignTyp	Value assignment type	Formula: Formula used to calculate the Attribute. Only enabled if the attribute Value assignment type, Value is selected. If the formula is numeric but the target attribute is a string, Vissim will convert the numeric to string. Distribution (Distr): Distribution defined in Vissim to which the Attribute is set. Only enabled if under the attribute Value assignment type, Distribution is selected. These can also be executed during the simulation run. Execution types: After simulation start, at time step start, at time step end, before simulation end.
FromTime	From time	Start of time interval in seconds for which the vehicle attribute decision is valid. Default: 0.00 s
ToTime	To time	End of time interval in seconds for which the vehicle attribute decision is valid
Lane	Lane	Number of the link and lane with the vehicle attribute decision
Pos	Position	Distance of vehicle attribute decision from beginning of link

Showing and editing dependent objects as relation

The attribute and attribute values of this network object type are shown in the list on the left, which consists of two coupled lists.

1. In the list on the left, click the desired entry.

The list on the right contains attributes and attribute values of network objects, and/or base data allocated to the network object selected in the list on the left (Using coupled lists):

Vehicle classes

2. On the list toolbar, in the Relations list, click the desired entry.

The right-hand list is shown. If there is no assignment, only the column titles are shown.

3. Enter the desired attribute values in the right-hand list (Defining the vehicle class).

The data is allocated.
