How to stop a processor while another processor is busy?

Hi, what I need to be achieved in my model is that processor 1 stops processing flow items while processor 2 is busy or vice versa. That is, the 2 processors can't work at the same time. Thanks!

Hi

Maybe something like this will work for You.

I'm closing each processor input when something enters the opposite processor and open it when the box exit.

See attached model.
