For all subsequent actions the Vehicle Inputs mode needs to be active.
There are two ways to open the Vehicle Inputs window:
► For vehicle inputs of a certain link: Double-click that link.
► For all vehicle inputs in the network: Right-click outside of the VISSIM
network.
As long as this modeless dialog window is open you may navigate or zoom
in/out the network display.
The vehicle input data is arranged in two sections:
► Volumes/Compositions section
► Time intervals section
Time Intervals Section
(This section can be hidden by clicking on . To show it again, click on .)
Here the time interval boundaries are defined. At least one time interval is
required, thus the first and the last line may not be deleted. By default, the
simulation period is set for the time interval, cf. section 8.1.1.
Changes to the list of time interval thresholds will immediately change the
column layout in the Volumes/Compositions section (see below).
1. Right click inside the section and choose NEW from the context menu.
A new line is added at the end of the list.
2. Enter the value of the new time interval boundary. The value must be
different from any other time but can also be smaller than the last value.
In that case, an existing time interval is split at the time newly entered.
