Applying a User-defined Speed Profile
To apply a User-defined Speed Profile:
- Follow the procedure Creating an Entity Type, as far as step 8.
- Select the option User defined speed profile.
- Select a Speed Profile from the drop-down list labelled 'Flat ground'. If you are happy for the software to automatically calculate the speed of Entities going up and down stairs, proceed to step 5.
-
If you have imported customised Speed Profiles for Entities going
up and down stairs, check the following boxes and choose the correct profiles
from the associated drop-down lists:
- Stairs up
- Stairs down
- Escalators up - checked by default, and should be unchecked if a custom speed for that aspect is not required. When off, the speed for that aspect will be inferred from the other selected Speed Profiles.
- Escalators down - checked by default, and should be unchecked if a custom speed for that aspect is not required. When off, the speed for that aspect will be inferred from the other selected Speed Profiles.
- Click Apply or OK to save the Entity Type.
