Sending Stop Signal to Processor

Hello, everyone. I have a simple model of a processor producing a box in interarrival time and a conveyor. is there a way to stop the processor, lets say for 40 seconds when there are 4 box in the conveyor? What can I use? Maybe things like process flow?

Process Flow would be a good choice. An Event-Triggered Source can react to the content of the conveyor passing a threshold. There are pickoptions for stopping and resuming objects in the Custom Code activity.

So at its simplest, the Process Flow block might look like below.
