Running a macro

Perform the following steps for each test run.

1.  Record the macro file.

2.  If desired, edit the macro file.

3.  Adjust the parameters of the control logic for the test case.

4.  If desired, activate evaluations (Evaluating signal controller detector records).

5.  On the Test menu, click > Run Macro.

The Run Macro File window opens.

6.  If desired, into the Until Second box, enter the simulation second up to which you want to macro to run.

7.  If you have enabled evaluations, save and analyze the evaluations.

Notes:  

  • Vissim does not automatically name the files of different test cases. This gives you flexibility when naming. Give the files useful and unique file names, for example, include the test case number.
  • If different test cases are examined when testing VS-PLUS logics, a signal controller detector record is created in a file *.ldp for each test case. Give this file the name of the *.m_i macro file which was used to generate the *.ldp file. This improves the clarity and makes it easier to find the files.
