Time profile items without vehicle journeys section |
There are the following possibilities to treat time profile items which are not used by vehicle journeys. Set times for all (active) time profile items If this option has been selected, new run and dwell times are set for all (active) time profile items. For time profile items without vehicle journeys, set run and dwell time =0 If this option has been selected, the run and dwell time of time profile items without vehicle journeys are set to 0. Delete time profile items without vehicle journeys, if possible, otherwise set times = 0 If this option has been selected, time profile items without vehicle journeys will be deleted. If this is not possible, the run and dwell times will be set to 0. Note This is not possible for the first or the last item of a time profile if a vehicle journey or a vehicle journey section starts or ends there, or if a coordination group starts or ends at this time profile item. |
|
Update run times section |
If the option has been selected, the respective run times of the selected time profile are recalculated and issued according to the current settings. From link run time If the option has been selected, the run times of the link run times of the respective PuTSys are used. From system routes If the option has been selected, the times from the system routes are used. From link attribute If the option has been selected, you can specify a weighting factor and a link attribute or subattribute, based on which the run time will be calculated. From time profile item attribute If the option has been selected, you can specify a weighting factor and a time profile item attribute or subattribute, based on which the run time will be calculated. Constant If the option has been selected, you can enter a constant run time. |

|
Round to Use the drop-down list to select the number of seconds to which you want to round. Set times only if vehicle combination fits If the option has been selected, the specific vehicle combination times will be used instead of the dwell time of the system route. Note The option is only available if the From system routes option has been selected. Consider only active links If the option has been selected, passive links will not be taken into account. Note The option is only available if the From link run time or the From link attribute option has been selected. Consider (main) turns If this option is selected, you may specify a weighting factor and a turn/main turn attribute of PrT, which are taken into account when the program calculates the run times. Notes The option is only available if the From link run time or the From link attribute option has been selected. When you select the turn attribute, Visum checks whether a main turn attribute with the same attribute ID exists. If this is the case, the main turn attribute is adopted. |
|
Update dwell times |
If the option has been selected, the respective dwell times of the selected time profile are recalculated and issued according to the current settings. Notes An update of the dwell times can have the following effect on the rounding of the run times: When updating the dwell times, despite rounding the current run time will still be the sum of the run times From stop point - To stop point. A run time = 0 can be allocated to a section, if necessary. If the dwell times are not updated, rounded times may deviate from previous run times. From stop point time If the option has been selected, the default dwell times of single stop points can be used. From stop point attribute If the option has been selected, you can specify a weighting factor and a stop attribute or subattribute, based on which the dwell time will be calculated. From time profile item attribute If the option has been selected, you can specify a weighting factor and a time profile item attribute or subattribute, based on which the dwell time will be calculated. Constant If the option has been selected, you can enter a constant dwell time. Round to Use the drop-down list to select the number of seconds to which you want to round. |
If the option has been selected, new values are added to existing values.
If the option has not been selected, existing values are replaced by new values.5. Confirm with OK.
The selected rows are updated.

Notes: The reference stop point correlates with the Reference item index attribute, which you can access in the time profile lists (Working with lists). Changes to the reference stop point do not take effect immediately but after subsequent operations. The reference stop point is not considered when shifting vehicle journeys. This applies to explicit shifting, for example in the graphical or tabular timetable (Using the graphical and tabular timetable). |
Editing the run and dwell times of a section
