Diagnostic

and remember to put in the password on top right.

Note: Be sure about which file is for weekdays and which for sunday.. as the files internally have no day information on them.

After you click Upload, the system will load the XMLs and run a diagnostic check on them. The report of the diagnostic will be shown in this box. See screenshot.

2. Stations

Upload XMLs in step 1...

Instructions: If the diagnostic check showed that there were Unmapped stops, then edit the stations table below to update. When done, click "Save Changes" button below. That will trigger the diagnostic check once again.
Note: The map will not update with changes you make in the table. Click Save Changes and then it will update.
