How to make an operator travel after an event?

helpme.fsm

Hello everyone!

My model works the following way: an item entries into the Processor, and that comand send a message to close input, then it is processed by the Processor and goes to Sink. Sink sends a message with a 30 seconds delay to re-open Processor's input.

I want to make an operator travels to Processor that has been recently used, stay there for during this 30 seconds delay, and then goes back to a home location.

If possible, I want that using 3D logic, please.

Notice that I have more than just a single Processor, so the Operator should traver to different places each time.

There is not a simple way to call an Operator after Process Finish and return the Operator to a location using just 3D. I would recommend using Process Flow. You can look at the following tutorials as to how you might be able to do this.

What about if I wanted my Operator travelling some route everyday from 12:00 to 13:00 ?

You might be able to this in Process Flow using a Date Time Source and then using an acquire resource that is connected to the Operator to control him. Here is the link to learn more about Date Time Source.
