Configuration - Traffic Lights Dialog
You use this dialog to create and maintain traffic lighting rules and, where required, the overlay values that determine colours.
Traffic lighting rules define how coloured dots are shown next to assets in the asset tree. A rule can determine the colour in one of two ways:
by referencing a calculated colour field in an Asset Information Group (AIG), or
by using manually defined overlay values that map field values to colours.
The dialog is divided into two main sections:
Traffic Lighting Rule Configuration:
Use the standard grid toolbar (see Using the Grid) to create, edit, delete, import or export traffic lighting rules or check connections. Choosing Add or Edit opens the Add/Edit Traffic Light dialog (see Add/Edit Traffic Light Dialog).
Overlay Value Configuration:
Use the standard grid toolbar to create, edit, delete, import or export overlay values associated with the selected rule. Choosing Add or Edit opens the Add/Edit Overlay Value dialog (see Add/Edit Overlay Value Dialog).
Note
If a rule uses a colour field in an AIG, that calculated colour is used directly and overlay values are not required. If no colour field is specified, define overlay values to map the Value Field to colours.
