available for that dimension, the application selects
those units.
Selects the units associated with the selected file
channel.
Channel Unit
Displays the names of the time triggers in the time
history file.
Actions
Each time trigger name references a specific
identification number (multiple triggers can reference
the same identification number). The identification
number locates a particular point in the data at which
an associated system action should occur. The Time
History Output activity displays all of the unique time
trigger names in the time history file (or in all of the
time histories of a road surface file).
The name of each time trigger is assigned by MTS
RPC software. You can refer to the assigned time
trigger names when assigning actions to them.
Use the Test Action list to assign a Station Manager
action or action group to each time trigger in the
Test Action
sequence. When MPT runs a Time History Output
activity and trips a time trigger, it initiates the action
sequence.
Note:
Default actions (Indicate, Station Power Off,
Interlock, Program Interlock, Program Stop,
and Program Hold) are not available. You must
assign custom actions (created with Station
Manager’s Event-Action Editor) specifically
created for the time triggers. A typical custom
action would be to set or clear a digital output.
