Illustration 55: Matrix editor tools menu
If you click one of the
Text
menu items the Windows standard dialogues for “file save as”,
resp. “file open” will appear. Besides the text also edited bitmaps can be stored from or loaded
into the matrix editor by the menus
Tools – Bitmap – Load
and
Save.
Predefined placeholder like date
, time in short format (hh:mm) or long format (hh:mm:ss) can
be inserted like bitmaps in the lines of the display pages, by a mouse click to the wished line
position and hereafter by a click to the menu
Tools – Placeholder
with the selection of
Time1,
Time2, Date
or
Placeholder
.
Within the display page lines the placeholders are shown as
apostrophe delimited numbers, which start at ‘127’ (short time format), similar to the bitmaps
(‘1’ – ‘31’). The value or content of placeholders are determined or calculated just before they
are displayed.
Placeholders for time and date can be used for example together with a permanent shown text
page and a 230V net supplied viasis, see also chapter 6.11. Placeholders are further used in
special software which displays calculated money or point penalties depending on the measured
over speeding.
6.10.5 Permanent text page
The viasis PLUS offers the possibility to define a
Permanent shown page
, that means a dis-
play page shown if no other page is activated due to vehicle detection above the set speed
thresholds.
Be aware: The energy consumption of a permanent shown LED text in compare to the
short time activated, switched text due to vehicle detections, is very high and therefore
only appropriate for 230V mains supplied viasis PLUS. For viasis PLUS with 12V ac-
cumulator is this no option due to the strong reduction of operating time.
For the configuration of a permanent text page proceed as follows:
-
In the Viamatrix menu
Parameter – Number of text pages
, see menu chapter 6.10, rise the
number from 4 to 5.
-
In the Viamatrix menu
Parameter – Permanent text page
enter page number 5. Permanent
text page 0 means deactivated.
-
Return to the viasis main menu

The time and date clock of the Viamatrix, whose values appear in the matrix lines, are loaded from the viasis
real time clock (RTC) at power on. So changes at the viasis time and date settings, see chapter 6.5.3 get valid
on the matrix after the next power on.
