CHAPTER 6 DATA PAGE

Configuring Automated TMDD Export

The TMDD Config XML Output, TMDD Data XML Output and Command XML Out-

put can be enabled or disabled by toggling the checkboxes in the upper left corner of the

Export tab. Edit the file name in their respective text fields to change the output file names.

Save any changes to the TMDD export settings by clicking the Save Auto Export Settings

button; changes to TMDD settings will be put into effect the next time either output is run.

The output files can be viewed at any time by clicking the View Config XML and View Data

XML links and can be saved to the local machine by right-clicking and selecting the Save

As… option. If the file name has recently been changed, the links may not be active until

the next configuration or data job is run and a new file with the edited file name is created.

Viewing the configuration or data files doesn’t require logging into Collector each time;

open either file in a Web browser and bookmark the address to view the files at any time.

(Similar links are available for the Command XML format.)

The Auto Export Frequency (seconds) option controls the export frequency in seconds.

Some sensors don’t reset their average speed calculation from the previous interval unless a

vehicle is detected during the new interval time period. However, volume is always reset to

start at zero for each new interval. If the volume is zero and the speed is not, some programs

will attempt to divide the speed by zero, which is not a valid calculation. In order to feed

data into programs that don’t check the volume before dividing, the Set speed to zero when

volume is zero setting will automatically eliminate this problem.

Automated Custom Export

The automated custom export box allows you to define the report template (see Figure

6.12):
