User (5 minute periods)
This option is useful when you want to create your own template, for example, based on traffic data collected on site.
Elevate creates a template based on the total demand for each 5 minute period entered by the user. Traffic is divided into % incoming, % outgoing and % interfloor according to the values entered.
