...
Select Profile, which will launch the Profile Editor for the selected carriageway.

All carriageways will always have a profile labelled Default Operating Mode. To create another profile, select the New button. The window will be placed into edit mode, and a new profile will be created. An entry will be placed under the existing profile in the list.

The default profile cannot be deleted. However if a custom profile has been applied to a carriageway it can still be deleted. This will leave the carriageway in its current state so you should apply the default profile or another custom profile if you want to undo the settings from the profile you have just deleted. |
Edit a Profile
To edit a selected profile, press the Edit button.
The name and description text boxes become editable and you can change the Speed Limit and Operating Mode of the carriageway.
To make the change permanent, press Save. To ignore the changes, press Cancel.

If the carriageway speed is changed in the default Speed Limit field it will update all the sections to that speed, so if there were previously configured sections with a different setting to the default then this would have been changed too. |
