Evaluating signal changes
You can record all changes of the individual signal groups from all signal controllers. Signal controllers must be defined in the network (Modeling signal controllers).
Output data and formats
You can save the following data and data formats:
Output | ASCII file | MDB table | Window |
---|---|---|---|
Aggregated data |
- |
- |
|
Raw data |
*.lsa |
|
|
- Save raw data to a file or database (Configuring evaluations for direct output)
- Show data in a window (Showing evaluations in windows)
Showing evaluation of signal changes in a window
1. On the Evaluation menu, click > Windows > Signal Changes.
The Signal changes window opens in a tab.
2. Start the simulation (Running a simulation).
In the Signal changes window, the current values of the following data is displayed:
Element | Description |
---|---|
SimSec | Simulation second [s] |
CycSec | Cycle time [s] |
SC | Signal controller number |
SG | Signal group number |
State | New signal state |
old | Time since the last signal state change (= duration of the previous signal state) |
Crit | Signal controller type |
bcSG | Signal group which has caused the current signal change. This is supported only by certain controllers for vehicle actuated signals. |
A *.lsa file is saved.
Result of evaluation of signal changes
The record file of signal changes *.lsa contains the following information:
Element | Description |
---|---|
File title |
Name of evaluation |
File |
Path and name of network file |
Comment |
Optional comment from the simulation parameters |
Date |
Time of evaluation |
Vissim |
Version number, service pack number, build number |
Signal controller block |
All signal groups |
Data block |
A row is output for each change process of each signal group. The columns contain the following data (from left to right):
