Attributes of vehicle inputs
The Vehicle Inputs list opens automatically when you insert a network object and have selected to automatically have a listed opened after object creation (Right-click behavior and action after creating an object). By default, only the Vehicle Inputs list is opened.
1. Select Private transport > Inputs in the Lists menu.
The Vehicle inputs list opens.
By default, you can edit the list (Using lists).
The attribute and attribute values of this network object type are shown in the list on the left, which consists of two coupled lists.
Tip: To open coupled lists for a network object type, on the Lists menu, click > <Name network object type>. |
The list on the left may include the following attributes:
Column | Description |
---|---|
No |
Unique number of the vehicle input |
Name | Name of vehicle input |
Link | Name of the link to which the vehicle input was added |
Volume | Volume: Number of vehicles per hour - not per time interval |
VehComp |
Vehicle composition per hour - not per time interval (Modeling vehicle compositions) |
2. If you want to change the time intervals for a vehicle input, right-click the desired entry in the Vehicle Inputs list.
3. On the shortcut menu, click Edit Time Intervals.
The Time Intervals list opens (Defining time intervals for a network object type).
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). |
Showing and editing dependent objects as relation
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 Volumes By Time Interval list
1. Enter the desired values.
Element | Description |
---|---|
Cont |
Continued: Adopts the volume of the previous interval, if several time intervals for vehicle inputs have been defined. The first time interval is therefore always deactivated. The cells are white and the values are valid for this time interval only.
|
TimeInt |
Time interval: Start and end of the interval in simulation seconds (Defining time intervals for a network object type). |
Volume |
Volume per time interval (number of vehicles per hour) |
VolType |
Volume type:
The cells are white.
The cells are yellow. If in addition, the Continued attribute is selected, the exact number of vehicles is generated for the entire period, which is made up of all time intervals. If the Continued attribute is not selected, the exact number of vehicles is generated in each time interval. |
VehComp |
Vehicle Compositions (Modeling vehicle compositions) |
2. If you want to allocate additional volumes to other intervals for the selected vehicle input, right-click in the Vehicle Volumes By Time Interval list.
3. On the shortcut menu, click Add.
The next defined time interval will be added.
4. Enter the desired values.
