Signal group attributes

You can display the signal group attributes as relation of the left list Signal controllersin the right list Signal groups.

1. On the Lists menu, click > Intersection Control > Signal Controllers.

In the list on the left, you can select a signal controller. In the list on the right, you can show the objects assigned to it.

2. On the list toolbar, in the Relations list, click > Signal groups.

Note: In lists, you can use the Attribute selection icon to show and hide attribute values (Selecting attributes and subattributes for columns of a list).

LongName	Short name	Description
Number	No.	Unique signal group number
Name	Name	Name of signal group
Type	Type	Display type of the signal group: Normal Indicating Green arrow
Checkout detector port number	ChkOutDetPortNo	Port number of the detector terminating the green interval
Call detector port number	CallDetPortNo	Port number of the detector calling the green interval
Clearance time (PT)	ClearTmPT	The time needed for a vehicle to stop, open/close doors, and other possible delays. Do not consider boarding and alighting times (Changing attributes for a vehicle type for the duration of boarding and alighting).
Controlled by COM	ContrByCOM	If this option is selected, this signal group is controlled via the COM interface. This attribute is only active during the simulation run. If a value is allocated to the Signal state attribute, the Controlled by COM attribute will be selected while ignoring the normal control. To use the normal controller again, deactivate the Controlled by COM attribute.
Amber	Amber	Duration of the amber interval within one cycle. Not valid for all signal controller types.
Green flashing time	GreenFlsh	Duration of the flashing green interval within one cycle. Not valid for all signal controller types.
Signal controller	SC	Name of the assigned signal controller from the coupled list on the left
Maximum green time	MaxGreen	Maximum time during green interval. Not valid for all signal controller types.
Minimum green time	MinGreen	Minimum time during green interval. Not valid for all signal controller types.
Minimum red time	MinRed	Minimum time during red interval. Not valid for all signal controller types.
Red-amber time	RedAmber	Duration of the RedAmber interval within one cycle. Not valid for all signal controller types.
Signal state	Signal state	Current signal state during the simulation run, e.g. Red
Signal state run time	tSigState	Elapsed time (in simulation seconds) of the current signal state of the signal group. If the signal group is controlled via the COM interface, this attribute will not be updated correctly.
Actuation type	ActuationType	Defines whether the signal group shows a green signal by default or turns green only when a call is placed. Default Signal Group: Signal group for the major flow. The signal group shows a steady green signal as long as there is no call from the call detector of the calling signal group. Calling signal group: Signal group for the minor flow: For pedestrians, if the signal controller of the type Pedestrian Crossing is allocated For railways/trams, if the signal controller of the type Railway Crossing is allocated Minor flow: if the signal controller of the type 2-stage controller is allocated
