6.7.4.5 Editing Stage Sequences (VISSIG add-on)
Signal Controllers
Via Stage sequence editing in the navigator, you can create signal programs
and interstages.
The window consists of two sections.
The upper section serves for display of defined stages as well as for
interstage calculation and stage sequence definition.
1. For calculation of an interstage, click the From-Stage first and then leftclick
while pressing CTRL simultaneously to select the To-Stage. The
stages are marked by 1 and 2. In the context menu, select the CREATE AN
INTERSTAGE command. The created interstage wil be displayed in the
lower section of the window.
Between two stages, multiple interstages can be defined (e.g. with/without
minimum duration).
In VISSIG, a signal group can be switched only once per interstage, i.e. the
signal group can change from permitted to blocked or vice versa.
To model an interstage which allows for switching a signal group twice, a
pseudostage has to be defined in VISSIG and two interstages have to be
added (one directly before the pseudostage and the other one following the
pseudostage), cf. section 6.7.4.3.
