4.3.3 Revertive Demands
When a vehicle actuated phase terminates with an extension active, a revertive latched
demand is inserted for the phase to prevent any vehicles being trapped between the
detectors and stop line without a demand for the phase.
If required, the revertive demand may be inserted for an alternative phase rather than
for the terminated phase.
In the example in Figure 21.5, the green arrow Phase C inserts a revertive demand for
its associated Phase B, and dummy Phase H for Phase F.
4.3.4 UTC Demand Bits
These provide simulated on-street demands and/or extensions from the UTC
computer. In the case of pedestrian demands, the WAIT indicator will be illuminated
on receipt of the demand unless specifically requested otherwise.
4.3.5 Conditions Occurring
Demands and/or extensions may be required to be inserted when certain conditions
occur rather than the operation of detectors. For example, a stage becoming active
inserts a demand for a following stage.
4.3.6 Repeat Pulses
When controllers are linked, demands and/or extensions may be required to be inserted
when certain conditions occur in the first controller and the pulses are repeated to the
second controller. (See section 13.2).
4.3.7 SDE/SA
This facility provides extra extensions to phases for high speed vehicles, see section 6.
4.3.8 Handset
Demands and extensions for phases may be inserted via the handset using the IOP
command.
Type in IOP 0 enter. Then pressing keys 0-7 will insert demands/extensions on port 0,
all the time the key is pressed. The ‘+’ and ‘-’ keys may be used to quickly move up
and down to other ports.
Alternatively, fixed demands and extensions for phases may be inserted and removed
via the handset using the PHD and the PHE commands.
