Help with custom code in PF

grua-puente-2.fsm

Hello everyone, I would like you to help me with the "custom codes" of process flow, in the flowchart of "grua puente 2", I have two delays

How can I change the status of the two operator from "idle" to "utilize" during the delays?

Are you changing this parameter for statistical purposes or do you actually need the operators functioning somehow?

What you have in your model is the right idea. You can set the operator's state to UTILIZE and then back to IDLE or another state after the delay and I'm pretty sure that would allow your stats collector to grab accurate data.

If you need both operators, you can add another function with the green plus button like this:

Hopefully this is helpful. It seems that you've already got it 90% figured out.

Attached is your model with the two minor changes that I made.

All I did was add two more delays (one before each Custom Code block) of 0.01. This allows any previous executing code to complete before the custom code changes the Operators state. Would this "fix" solve your problem?

Thanks.
