About Plotting Deadheads

Plotting allows you to calculate the distance between nodes and between a garage and a node on the system or Google map.

Note: The Plot tab in the Edit dialog box in the Deadheads screen is similar to the Plot tab in the Node to Node Edit dialog box.
You can plot deadhead traces on either the system or Google map in a manner similar to plotting route traces in the Route Definition screen. The following image shows a sample deadhead trace on the Google map.

The plot must be traced completely. A warning appears if the trace is not within the predefined radius of the end node. The radius is set as a Blocking property.
