LinSig Version 3 Software Support

Version History


The table below show the history of changes made to LinSig Version 3. We always recommend upgrading to the latest version but where this is difficult the version history allows you to decide whether an update is essential for your particular circumstances and use of LinSig.

Version Description of Changes

3.2.44.1

This update adds a number of improvements to LinSig and fixes some minor issues and is recommended for all users.

This update:

  • Improvements to Cycle Time Optimisation View including addition of tables showing PRC and Delay for each Junction for a range of cycle times.
  • Allows cycle time optimisation to be run at intervals of cycle time rather than every cycle time speeding up Cycle Time Optimisation View run times.
  • Adds display of Entered and Modelled Custom Lane Length to Lane Connector Text Display.
  • Adds display of MME statistic to Network Results View and Lane Text Display.
  • Improves the labelling of crossing direction for Pedestrian Crossings in the Network Results View.
  • Adds additional columns to the Phase Timings SCATS Model Audit Report Fragment.
  • Improves the layout of options in the Licensing system user interface making legacy options less prominent to avoid inadvertent use of the legacy licensing system.
  • Improvements to installer to provide greater compatibility with more recent versions of Windows.
  • Adds a digital certificate to the LinSig 3 download package and installer to reduce false positive security warnings from Windows and Anti-Virus when downloading and installing LinSig.
  • Fixes an issue where the Default Bus Speed for new Lane Connectors was not being retained after a file was closed. This did not affect the actual cruise speed set on a Lane Connector.
  • Fixes a display issue for Indicative Green Arrow Phases in a Drive-on-the-Right model.
  • Fixes an issue with the display of Phase letters in SCATS mode for the Phase Sequence Data section of the Model Audit View.

3.2.40.0

This update adds a number of improvements to LinSig and fixes some minor issues and is recommended for all users.

The update:

  • Adds the ability to assign flows to multiple flowgroups in a single step.
  • MMQ length on network Layout View Lane Data is now highlighted in red when it is greater than entered lane length.
  • Adds "Clear" buttons to Traffic Flows view and Intergreen view to clear the respective matrix.
  • Adds copy and paste of Flowgroup definitions.
  • Stage durations can now be locked when optimising using the Timing Dials as well as the Signal Timings View.
  • Adds background image to Traffic Flows View to make it clearer whether traffic or pedestrian flows are being edited.
  • Fixed an optimiser issue which could cause a crash in unusual circumstances or combinations of data.
  • Fixed an issue with SCATS pedestrian protection data changes not being retained when edited from the SGroup Data View.
  • Added additional logging to help diagnose communication issues with the update notifier due to firewalls etc.

3.2.39.00

This update is recommended for all users.

The update:

  • Corrected display of stage numbers when hovering over stages in the Time Distance Diagram.

3.2.38.00

This update is recommended for all users.

The update:

  • Added a Refresh Route List button to allow the list of available routes to be manually refreshed.
  • Added some additional fields to the Network Information data.

3.2.37.00

This update is recommended for all users.

The update:

  • Fixed bug that resulted in certain types of complex models being unnecessarily slow to respond.
  • Fixed crash that could sometime occur after deleting a Lane Connector.
  • Fixed crash in the licensing system that could occur in rare cases.

3.2.33.00

This update is recommended for all users.

The update:

  • Corrected a display issue for models with more than 51 Zones.

3.2.32.00

This update is recommended for all users.

The update:

  • Corrected a bug during Matrix Estimation related to forcing LinSig to use a route that would normally be excluded due to being unfeasibly long. This fix ensures that those routes are properly taken into account during the Matrix Estimation process.
  • Improved the stability of the Matrix Estimation process.

3.2.31.00

This update is recommended for all users.

The update:

  • Corrected a bug that could result in LinSig freezing while manually adjusting signal timings.

3.2.30.00

This update is recommended for all users.

The update:

  • Some networks may contain cyclic dependencies i.e. where the pattern of traffic leaving a lane indirectly affects the pattern of traffic entering that same lane. This can be due to circular routing patterns, or due to give ways. LinSig deals with this by a process of iteration to stabilise the traffic patterns in the network. In some isolated cases, it is possible for the traffic patterns to be stabilised even further by increasing the amount of iteration. This update adds the ability for LinSig to detect if the network can be stabilised further by using more iterations.

  • Times on the Timing Dials can now be rotated incrementally using the arrow keys.
  • The Rotate/Scale feature on the Network Layout View can be optionally linked to Phases in the selected Junctions.
  • Automatic recalculation of scenarios can be temporarily disabled to improve response when repeatedly entering input data for a large model.
  • An optional crash reporting facility to assist in the event of LinSig crashing unexpectedly.

Fixes

  • Correction to ensure Flow Group dependent directly entered Sat Flow values are displayed correctly.
  • Correction to Phase Edit dialog when there are more than 26 phases.
  • Neater display of double-lettered phases in the Phase View.
  • Prevent intermittent crash when double-clicking near a Lane Connector or Pedestrian Link Connector
  • Corrected the sorting on the Matrix Estimation View.
  • Corrected some note text so that it respects the Display Per Cycle option.
  • Defaults for new files|Default user name is now saved correctly.
  • Prevented intermittent crashes if you do perform an undo quicky after editing signal timings.
  • Corrected Lane Connector text to show blank cruise time if no cruise time has been entered.
  • Fixed the Lane Connector tool tip so that it now displays.

 

 

3.0.08.00

This update rectifies the majority of early uptake bugs and issues that have emerged following widescale uptake and use of this new version of LinSig; this update is recommended for all users.

3.0.02.00

Early Purchase Public Release

This update is recommended for all users.

Fixes

  • Fixed a crash that could occur in reporting if a Scenario has no Flow Group specified.
  • Corrected a bug that under some circumstances prevented Pedestrian Link crossing times from being altered.
  • Corrected a bug when attaching Pedestrian Links to Pedestrian Zones that meant some Pedestrian route flows would need re-assigning.
  • Corrected a problem when balancing Pedestrian route flows that resulted in poor balancing if the pedestrians have a choice of routes.
