Shifts

Shifts can be added to a Timetable and used to change operational status over time for flow objects in the model. It is possible to add one or several shifts to a Timetable.

Shifts are setup in the shift editor (seen to the right). Each row represent a shift in the timetable and the following actions are used to add and remove shifts:

Add a shift: Push to add a shift.

Remove a shift: Push for the shift that should be removed.

Remove all shifts: Push in the header row.

A detailed description of the available settings (i.e. each column) of a shift is given in the table below.
