Data Model

9. Data Model
If a data model must be associated with the control point (to get extra settings or give specific data to the user code), select it from the drop down list.
To set or change the parameters (interface) of the data model, use the button.
For example, a path might represent an exit procedure. User can then create a data model named FireEngine with all kind of data some other components or logics might need to process. Using the data model attachment capability, user will be able to specialize any path of his scenario.

When an extremity of the path is reached, here is the advised procedure:

  • Stop: Set speed to zero. Same heading.
  • Loop: Go back to first control point
  • Inverse: Do a U-turn maneuver to reenter the path from the last point and follow it the other way, then back again when extremity is reached.
