EXHIBIT "I" <br />Detector Loop Tagging Table Procedure <br />The Loop Tagging Table shall be completed from the signalized intersection plan, including <br />properly identified loop numbers, vehicle directional movements with associated lane designations, <br />phase assignments, individual loop numbers and count output numbers. <br />Loop Number: <br />The Loop Number shall be the detector rack channel number, for each additional rack added <br />the channel numbers shall be increased by sixteen (ie: the third detector racks first loop would be 33). <br />The loop numbers shall be assigned in two groups: Counting and non -counting channels. Each group <br />shall follow the direction and lane designation convention. To minimize the number of detection <br />channels required, counting loop channels shall be grouped first followed by non -counting channels. <br />The order of the loops shall minimize the number of loop amplifiers and detector racks required for <br />the operation. If micro -loops are used with Canoga amplifiers loops shall be numbered in three <br />groups. Canoga amplifier channels shall follow non -counting channels <br />Direction of Vehicle movement: <br />The loop tagging table shall begin with highest priority route, either the northbound or <br />eastbound movement containing phase 2. The corresponding first cardinal direction letter for each <br />movement (N- north, S- south, E- east, W-west) shall be entered in the loop tagging table. The <br />remaining movements shall be labeled and listed according to plan view, clockwise from the <br />movement containing phase 2 (followed by the movement containing 4,6 and 8, skipping missing <br />movements and corresponding phases). Phase designations may vary for specialized signal <br />operations. <br />Lane Designation: <br />Loops shall be listed in the tagging table starting with the farthest left lane for each approach <br />and continue to be listed sequentially to the right and shall be designated as follows: <br />Left Turning Lanes: Exclusive Left turning lanes shall be designated by an "L" for left in the <br />table. Multiple left turn lanes on a single approach shall be designated by an additional alpha <br />character identifier so that "LA" represents the left most lane, followed by "LB" and "LC" <br />respectively, and continuing for each subsequent left turn lane for that approach. <br />Through Lanes: Through lanes or a shared through/right or shared through/left lane shall be <br />designated with an "A" for the left most lane followed alphabetically for each subsequent through <br />lane. Loops from different lanes shall not be connected together. Loop(s) placed in the right turn <br />radius are to be designated in the through lane. A radius loop that is counting shall have an exclusive <br />lead-in. <br />Right Turning Lanes: Exclusive Right turning lanes shall be designated as "R" for right. <br />Multiple right turning lanes on a single approach shall be designated by an additional alpha character <br />identifier so that "RA" represents the left most right turn lane, followed by "RB" and "RC" <br />respectively, and continuing for each subsequent right turn lane for that approach. <br />Phase Number: <br />The phase number shall be the controller phase number (1-16) assigned to each protected <br />movement corresponding to each lane. <br />Page 43 of 53 Pages <br />
