Allocating signal groups to lane turns or crosswalks

You have to allocate signal groups either to lane turns or to crosswalks so that the signal groups have a spatial reference.

1.  Make sure that the Geometry view is selected in the Views window.

2.  In the schematic view, select the Lanes entry or the Crosswalks entry in the drop-down list.

3.  Select the desired signal group in the list view under Signal groups.

The signal group is allocated to the lane turn or crosswalk.

Note: You can check the allocations of a signal group if you select the Signal groups option in the Geometry view, and open the respective selection window under Lane turns and Crosswalks for the desired signal group (Editing signal group attributes).

Allocating signal groups to lanes or legs

You can also allocate signal groups to lane turns by allocating them to all lane turns of a leg or lane in one step.

1.  Make sure that the Geometry view is selected in the Views window.

2.  In the schematic view, select the Lanes or the Legs entry in the drop-down list.

3.  Select the desired signal group in the list view under Signal groups.

The signal group is allocated to all lane turns of the selected lane or leg.

Displaying signal group attributes

In the list view, each column describes a signal group and each row describes an attribute of this object.

1.  Make sure that the Geometry view is selected in the Views window.

2.  In the schematic view, select the Signal groups entry in the drop-down list.

3.  Make the desired changes.

Editing signal group attributes

You can, for example, display the following attributes of signal groups in the list view.

Element

Description

Number

Number of the signal group

Name

Name of the signal group

Green time start

Green time start in seconds

The green time start and the green time end of the signal group are in the interval [0, round trip time]. The respective value results from the green times of the stages in the case of a stage-based signal controller. If the value 0 is specified as green time start and green time end for a signal group-based signal controller, the signal group shows permanent red, and permanent green for any other but the same value.

Green time end

Green time end in seconds

The following properties are always displayed in the list view of the geometry if you select the Signal groups:

Element

Description

Lane turns

Here you can select the lane turns, which shall be allocated to the signal group.

Crosswalks

Here you can select the crosswalks, which shall be allocated to the signal group.
