Hi, my processor will need to change chemical 1 hour after it produce 200 runs (every run take 30 minutes), how to setup a downtime for chemical change by runs not by a fix time table?
How to set a chemical change downtime for a processor after it produced 200 runs
FlexSim 17.0.13
You can use a setup time that is different for each 201th item. All other items have a setup time of 0, the 201th item has a time of an hour.
Alternatively you count or use a modulus division in the On Exit trigger that will close the input after 200th leaving item, set the State of the processor and sends a delayed message to himself by an hour. The On Message trigger opens the input again. The output of an object is a statistical value of
current.stats.output.value
or you can try the input statistical value. Alternatively
current.stats.input.value%200 == 0
is logical expression that is true if the rest of the modulus division gets 0.
Hi Jorg Vogel, i should add the down time is happen at every 200 runs?
Does the setup or On Exit trigger able to set repeated 1 hour additional downtime/delay at the end of every 200 runs?
Best regards
Hi @Boey TS, Yes, the On Exit trigger should be able to trigger a state change of your processor. Try implementing the code that Joerg gave in his answer in this trigger.
