  16. Video Switching Operator Training

  17. Video Switching: Overview • Acronyms: • VS: Video Switching • Concepts: • Video transmission technology: • SunGuideSM Video Switching only allows “similar” display/source technologies to be “switched” (e.g. VBrick and Teleste are interchangeable, iMPath is not) • Displays: • Local displays: displays associated with the local workstation • Shared displays: those displays visible by multiple people • Video tours: • Tours can be created/manager by operators • Tours can be “dropped” on any monitor with a similar technology Operator Training

  18. Video Switching: GUI • To switch: • Left click on one of: • Source • Tour • Left click on destination • System will report an error if source and destination are not compatible • Tours: • Operator defined • Select sources • Specify dwell Operator Training

  19. Video Wall Operator Training

  20. Video Wall • Acronyms: • VW: Video Wall • Relies on using the configurations performed by the Barco software • To switch: • Left click on one of: • Source • Tour • Left click on Barco “Viewer” • Layouts: • Operator may change an EXISTING layout: • Deactivate current layout • Select layout • Activate Operator Training

  21. Detectors Operator Training

  22. Detectors: Overview • Acronyms: • TSS: Transportation Sensor Subsystem • RTMS: Remote Traffic Microwave Sensor • MVDS: Microwave Vehicle Detection System • TSS provides: • Speed and occupancy data down to the “lane” level • Generates “alarms” which indicate an abnormal traffic condition • Supports a variety of detector technologies, the GUI is “detector neutral” in that the source of the data is not pertinent at the GUI • From the operator perspective, TSS is comprised of: • Detectors • Lanes • Links (a link is a collection of lanes) Operator Training

  23. Detectors: Detailed Data • Link/Lane data: • Select a lane from the graphical map and a graph of the link (that contains the lane) will be displayed (shows one direction only): • Lane Speed: • Current average speed (large text) • Last reported speed (smaller text) • Current alarm threshold (under graph) • Occupancy: • Current average occupancy (large text) • Last reported occupancy (smaller text) • Current alarm threshold (under graph) • Volume (if supported by detector): • Last reported volume • Detector status: • Allows operator to change the status of a detector Operator Training

  24. Detectors: Current Alarms • Alarms are generated when the speed and/or occupancy crosses the SunGuideSM Administrator established thresholds (these thresholds can vary by time of day) • Current alarms are displayed, the operator may: • Dismiss: remove from the system • Generate Incident: start the process of managing an incident (details of incident management will be provided later) Operator Training

  25. DMS and Message Queues Operator Training

  26. DMS and Message Queues: Overview • Acronyms: • DMS: Dynamic Message Sign • MAS: Message Arbitration Subsystem • PSA: Public Service Announcement • DMS Capabilities • Status of devices • Sending messages • Conflict resolution (spelling and approved words) • Libraries • Sequences • Groups Operator Training

  27. DMS: Status Screens • Status screens: • Short status • Detailed status • Detailed status: • Change • Operational status • Brightness • Control Mode • Display detailed status • Commands: • Blank sign • Send message • Diagnostic commands Operator Training

  28. DMS: Detailed Status Screens • Detailed diagnostic information as reported by the sign (protocol sometimes limits data) Operator Training

  29. DMS: Send Message • Allows operator to: • Edit a message (will be formatted for the sign geometry) • Set attributes of the message • Search message library for a “saved message” • Message is sent to MAS for “processing” Operator Training

  30. DMS: Conflict Screen • Displayed when a message being sent to DMS has a spelling conflict (a word is not the in the “approved word” list that is managed by the SunGuideSM Administrator • First operator (with override permissions) to respond will cause the conflict screen to be dropped on all workstations • Operator can alter the message and its attributes Operator Training

  31. DMS: Libraries • What are they: libraries “store” messages for later retrieval • Capabilities: • Manage libraries • Manage sub-libraries • Manage the messages stored Operator Training

  32. DMS: Sequences • What are they: sequences provide the ability to preconfigure different messages on a a variety of signs in preparation of an event/situation • Capabilities: • Manage libraries of sequences • Manage sequences • Manage the sequence items stored Operator Training

  33. DMS: Groups • Groups of DMS devices are established to facilitate putting the same message on a “group” of devices • DMS Groups are useful if you wanted to display a PSA on all the signs in a corridor • Capabilities: • Manage groups • Manage the content of the group Operator Training

  34. MAS: Overview • MAS implements the SunGuideSM message priority algorithm • Default priorities (1 to 256 possible values): • 1: default for “manually created messages” • 2 – 255: used for message priorities in response plans (more on this later) • 256: default for message sequences • When an operator or subsystem generates a message request (for either a DMS or HAR device), it is routed to MAS for queuing Operator Training

  35. MAS: Overview - continued • MAS will send the “top” (highest priority) message to the appropriate subsystem for processing • Queued messages are stored to the disk in the event of a subsystem restart Operator Training

  36. MAS: GUIs • MAS queue shows all devices (can be filtered) • Individual queue for one device can be displayed • Priorities of messages can be manually controlled • DMS sequences do not appear until “activated” Operator Training

  37. Incident Management Operator Training

  38. Incident Management: Overview • Acronyms: • IM: Incident Management Operator Training

  39. IM: Event Creation • Events created: • Manually • From alarms (TSS) • Each event must be: • Confirmed • False alarm • Bold fields: • Required fields Operator Training

  40. IM: Basic Information • Key fields: • Event name: SunGuideSM will generate a name – the operator can edit • Select severity: effects “distance” of event coverage • Owner: controlled by the system • Buttons provided to “control” state of event Operator Training

  41. IM Location Information • Key fields: • Latitude/Longitude: SunGuideSM system will provide - the operator can edit • If the event is located on an “instrumented” highway, SunGuideSM will provide (based on database): • Milepost • Roadway • Cross Street • Direction • Event is Located: must be entered by the operator – always defaults to “At” (can be “Before” or “After”) Operator Training

  42. IM: Lane Configuration • Before a response plan is created: • Establish lane configuration • Establish blocked conditions • This information is used to generate recommended response plans • Lane configuration graphic: • System attempts to provide accurate representation (only can be achieved if the event occurs on an instrumented piece of highway) • Default is to have two shoulders on both sides • Lane 1 is always to the left (see yellow solid line) • Lane “n” is always to the right (see white solid line) Operator Training

  43. IM: Lane Type • Changing block: • M - main lane • H – High Occupancy Vehicle lane • On – On ramp • Off – Off ramp • OnOff – On/Off ramp • Sh – Shoulder • C/D – Collector/Distributor (access) lane • Use left mouse to click on “lane type” graphic Operator Training

  44. IM: Lane Blocked • Changing blocked lane: • Green Arrow – lane open • Orange Barrel – lane blocked • Question Mark - Unknown status • Use left mouse to click on “block” graphic Operator Training

  45. IM: Event Details • Select one type of event (and enter appropriate data): • Congestion • Special Event • Weather • Construction • Disabled Vehicle • Safety Message • Action Required • Incident Operator Training

  46. IM: Other Details • Weather Conditions: • Provide a “notation” of the current weather conditions in the event record Operator Training

  47. IM: Other Details - continued • Contacts: • Allows contacts to be associated with an event • A dialog is “popped up” to enter a contact • Message are sent via email (to any device that supports) • Event notification is based on operator configuration in the Administrative editor Operator Training

  48. IM: Other Details - continued • Alternate Routes: • Allows operator to identify alternative routes for the current event • Alternative Route information is stored in the event record Operator Training

  49. IM: Other Details - continued • Participants (Resources): • Allows participants to be associated with an event • A dialog is “popped up” to enter a participant • The following can be “marked” for each participant • Notified of the event • Arrived at the scene • Departed the scene • Above data is stored in the event record Operator Training

  50. IM: Other Details - continued • Associated Events: • Allows events to be associated with each other • A dialog is “popped up” to enter a event • Associated an event does not “tie” the manipulation of the event together – it is simply a logical association • Associations are stored in the event record Operator Training
