Note: This function is only provided with the RBC controllers add-on ( Enabling or disabling add-ons ). |
If a signal controller has the control type RBC, you edit the control data in a special editor. The editor is described in the separate documentation Manual_RBC.pdf which is stored in the ...\PTV Visum 2021\Doc\... subfolder of your installation folder.
1. Open the desired (main) node in the junction editor (Displaying a network object in the Junction editor).
2. On the toolbar of the junction editor, click the 
Edit RBC controller symbol.
The RBC editor opens in which you can edit the control.
|
Note: If you convert a signal controller of the type RBC into a signal group-based or stage-based controller, the allocated signal time information will be largely preserved. |
Switching off or manually changing signal programs in Visum
In Visum, just one signal program is allocated to a signal controller. If a signal controller in RBC has several signal programs, only the currently assigned signal program is displayed in the junction editor. You can switch to another signal program or switch the signal controller off.
1. Open the Signal timing view of the junction editor (Junction editor and signal control).
2. In the Signal program drop-down list in the top right corner, select the desired signal program.
The signal program is changed. The signal timing is displayed in the lower section of the junction editor. The currently selected signal program is taken into account by the concerned procedures, i.e. assignment with ICA, signal cycle and split optimization and signal offset optimization.
Automatically changing or switching off signal programs in Visum
In the Visum procedure sequence you can automatically change the signal programs of RBC controllers. Here, Visum uses the desired time of day to identify the number of the corresponding signal program. For RBC controllers, the number of the daily signal program list to be used will be ignored. Visum then converts all signal controllers to the signal program that is valid at that time. If no signal program exists for the chosen time, the signal controller will be switched off.
1. On the toolbar, click the 
Open 'Procedure sequence' window button.
The Procedure sequence window opens.
2. Select the desired position in the procedure sequence and add the procedure Set signal programs from the Assignments category.
3. Make sure that the inserted operation is marked and click the Edit button in the Operations section.
The Set signal programs window opens.
4. Make the desired changes.

5. Confirm with OK.
6. Execute the procedure (Executing procedures in the procedure sequence).
The signal programs are changed. The currently selected signal programs are taken into account by the concerned procedures, i.e. assignment with ICA, signal cycle and split optimization, and signal offset optimization.
