The branch selected in the Select Cableway Branch list is displayed in the Current Branch pane and its branch point elements are displayed in the Branch Points list. The elements are ordered from HEAD to TAIL and display the fill levels for each branch point.

The colours on each individual cell correspond to the value entered in the Fill Check Utility Allowance field on the Defaults window.


Green	If a cell is coloured green, then the maximum fill of the branch is greater than the fill level.
Yellow	If a cell is coloured yellow, then the fill level of the branch point is within the fill check allowance to the maximum fill of the cableway branch.
Red	If a cell is coloured red, then the fill level of the branch exceeds the maximum fill of the cableway branch.

When a branch point is selected from the grid, graphical aids are displayed in the 3D Graphical View with the correct tag and position of the selected branch point.

To view an explanation of fill levels, click Explain Fill Levels to display the Fill Levels window.

The Connections pane displays if a branch point has a valid connection or not. Any valid connections are displayed, but if there is no valid connection, No Connections Associated is displayed.
