Notes
x1 see detailed list of ICA Input attributes per control type in corresponding tables in PTV Visum manual chapter "Intersec
x2 TollPrTSys must be explicitly added to the impedance function to take effect
x3 results are stored in user-defined link attributes per TI, only totals over all Dseg
x4 for dynamic assignment, these attributes can optionally vary over the assignment period
x5 totals for assignment period and values per time interval
x6 see detailed list of calculated link and turn attributs for Assignment with ICA in PTV Visum Manual Chapter "Input and o
x7 special input attributes for SBA (for control type rdbt gaps are defined for arms)
x8 special output attributes directly from the simulation for SBA
