Using add-on module TRENDS

Note: You must have a license for the add-on module.

Some control procedures expect the supply file to be saved in the same directory that contains the *.inpx file. If a control file is saved to a directory that does not meet the requirements of the control procedure, this can cause the program to crash. The supply files of the control procedures Fixed time/Vissig, VAP and RBC can be saved to any directory Vissim can access. Vissim does not need the supply files to be saved to a specific directory. Should you have any questions regarding supply files, please contact the company that developed the control procedure.
