Transition Points

Create multiple Transition Points

 


Transition Points are created in a similar way to creating Manholes / Handholes.

 

From the Network Map's Options bar:

 

01-02-DrawOption_Point

 

▪Select the Drawoption (Pencil icon)

▪From the dropdown list, select the Point option

 

This will reveal a blue dot on the Network Map. Now select the various site locations that will house the Transition Point by:

 

Black-1

Left clicking on the map - the blue dot will turn into a yellow location marker

Black-2

From the Network Map's Options bar, select the Save Drawbuffer ... (Up Arrow icon) - the Create Multiple Sites popup window appears.  

Black-3

Fill in the required information - in particular selecting the appropriate Site Template form the Site Template dropdown field which contains the necessary transition point equipment

 

▪Click on the Save icon in the lower left corner of the popup window when completed

 

01-01-TP_CreateNewTPform

 

 


To create a single Transition Point, follow the same steps as in the section called Create a single Manhole / Handhole,  but when selecting the Site Template, ensure a Transition Point template is chosen.

 

Popup View of the Transition Point

 

To obtain a view of elements within a Transition Point:

 

▪Left click on the Transition Point on the map

 

This opens up a popup window with tabs of related information. As seen in the next screen shot there are ports that can serve as logical transition points for circuits (Ports tab), and a simple graphic of the Transition Point's layout (Drawing tab).
