Performing Automatic Mapping
- It performs the processing for automatic mapping
- It processes intersections.
Most of the processing that Automatic Mapping performs is not apparent to the user. The only part that the user sees when the tool asks the user to indicate which CHPID assignments to reset (and a progress bar window for mapping and processing intersections).
Perform the following steps for automatic mapping.
- Click Automatic Mapping.
The Reset CHPID Assignments window opens. Figure 2 shows an example of the window with four choices. The fourth choice, is available only for an upgrade or an MES.
- Select the CHPIDs you want to reset.
You can select none, all, or any number of check boxes.

channel types.- Reset CHPIDs assigned by Automatic Mapping
- Resets all CHPIDs processed by previous automatic mapping in this
session.
By default, this option is selected. (To select none of the options, clear this default selection or click Deselect All.)
- Reset CHPIDs assigned by Manual Mapping
- Resets CHPIDS for which manual mapping assigned PCHIDs.
- Reset CHPIDs assigned by IOCP
- Resets CHPIDS assigned in the IOCP input file. Selecting this option may require recabling after automatic mapping. The following message is displayed (in red on the Reset CHPID Assignments window):
Resetting IOCP assignments may require recabling
- Reset CHPIDs assigned by CMT for config files
- Resets assignments the CHPID Mapping Tool made (for
an upgrade or an MES). The tool resets the assignments only if the
project's IOCP file includes CHPID Mapping Tool assignments for config
files.
Recommendation: Even if Reset CHPIDs assigned by CMT for config files is available, you are recommended not to select it. Suppose you run automatic mapping and review the intersections, concluding that the configuration file assignments are causing unacceptable intersections. You are then recommended to use manual mapping to reset only those configuration file assignments causing the unacceptable intersections.
- Click OK.
After the tool completes processing, you can view any intersections in the CHPID Groups pane of Manual Mapping or CU Priorities view.
