Charging time in the utilization statistic

Dear all,

Refering to the attached model, i am generating a number of utilization statistics on the machines as well as the TEs (AGVs in this case). For the AGV utilization statistic, I would also like to include the time spend by the AGV at the charging station, but that option is not available as one of the states. Can I some how include that part as well in my utilization pie chart for better representation of the AGV states?

Regards,

In your model, when an AGV charges, you gave it a task and set its state to Charging. In your State Charts, you can change the Display Name of the Busy state to Charging. You can also change the color. Then apply, reset, and run your model:

Hey Jordan, just to make sure I understand your solution. Are you saying that for the basic AGV template, busy = charging?

The OP had a delay for charging in which they set the state to 'busy':

In the Parking Heuristic and Advanced AGV templates you will see the decision to charge where you can set a state for the AGV:

You can compare the different templates here.
