Creating system routes for pairs of stop points

You can create system routes for pairs of stop points which are not connected to a system route.

1.  In the Network window, right-click the System routes button.

The System routes shortcut menu opens.

2.  Select the Create for stop point pairs entry.

The Create system routes for pairs of stop points window opens.

3.  Make the desired changes.

Element

Description

Naming

The following components of names of the system route to be generated can be selected and edited:

Prefix

Enter an arbitrary text

Transport system

Select a transport system attribute

Start stop point

Select a stop point attribute

End stop point

Select a stop point attribute

Notes

The following naming rules are effective if there is no system route within the network yet with an identical transport system and course:

  • A generated system route could, for example, result in the following name if all four elements are selected: Sys_T_20_40.
  • In order to avoid that identical names are assigned to different system routes that are generated at the same time, a number is appended to the end of the name in case a combination already exists. The numbering begins with 1, for example Sys_B_20_40_1.

Existing system routes can be overwritten or updated when given a new name:

  • A system route with an identical transport system and course will be overwritten if its name is identical to the components listed above. If the system route data of a network is supposed to be updated only, the same parameters as for the existing system routes thus need to be entered in the window.
  • If you want to prevent that existing system routes are overwritten, you need to specify a new combination of name components. No existing system routes will then be found in the network. All objects are then created anew, in addition to the existing system routes.

Distance criterion (link attribute)

Selection of a link attribute as distance criterion

Note

The system routes are determined via shortest path searches which are carried out based on the distance criterion and the transport system indicated.

Select one of the following attributes:

Length, t-PuTSys, AddValue1, AddValue2, AddValue3 and AddVal_TSys.

Transport system

Selection of a stop point attribute

Note

The system routes are determined via shortest path searches which are carried out based on the distance criterion and the transport system indicated.

Use only active stop points

If the option has been selected, system routes will only be created between active stop points.

4.  Confirm with OK.

System routes are created for all or all active pairs of stop points which are not yet connected by an active system route.
