Taking base volume into account

During assignment, you may take an existing base volume into account which is read from available attribute data and will be dealt with like a PrT volume q. You may select either simple or detailed computation of the initial volume.

1.  From the Calculate menu, choose General procedure settings.

The General procedure settings window opens.

2.  In the navigator, click PrT settings > Assignment.

3.  In the Base volume section, adjust the desired settings.

Description

Fix

If this option has been checked, you can read existing base volume data from network object attributes and regard the base volume during assignment.

Simple calculation

If this option has been checked, you should select a unique AddValue that stores the base volume of all of the traversed network object types (e.g. AddValue2 regards the AddValue2 data of links, main turns, turns and connectors). You can multiply the attribute values of the selected AddValue by a common factor.

Detailed calculation

If this option has been checked, you can select a specific attribute by network object type that stores the base volume of all traversed network objects of this type. For each network object type, the attribute values can be multiplied by a specific factor.

The changes are applied. The next PrT assignment will use the new settings.
