From vs | plus version 6.2.0, the functionality of vs | plus can be monitored during operation. Various limit values are checked in the plausibility module.  

The following values can be monitored:

  • Maximum red time of a traffic stream without call
  • Maximum red time of a traffic stream with call
  • Maximum green time of a traffic stream without extension
  • Maximum green time of a traffic stream with extension
  • Maximum waiting time of a vs | plus detector (Det) without green
  • Maximum permanent occupancy of a control detector
  • Maximum permanent gap of a control detector


After reaching the limit values - two thresholds can be set - vs | plus can react with the following actions:

  • Sending a message to the control unit (vs | plus error message) after reaching threshold 1 (0 to 3200 sec.).
  • Sending one of the following command requests (reactions) to the control unit after reaching threshold 2 (0 to 3200 seconds):
    • No reaction
    • System in fixed time
    • Send message (vs | plus error message)
    • Switch off the entire system
    • Switch off partial node 1
    • Switch off partial node 2
    • Switch off partial node 3
    • Switch programme to YAUT
    • Switch defined emergency programme
    • Reset vs | plus

These "commands" may be handled differently by the control units!

These plausibilities depend on the parameter set. These evaluations and reactions are therefore programme-dependent.
