Send Item   

Select Send Item from the pick list if you want the Decision Point or Photo Eye to send the item to a particular destination you define. When selected, the following dialog box will appear:

The Condition field defines the condition by which the item will be sent to the destination. See The Condition Field for more information.

The Destination field determines where to send the item. This should be a reference to an object that is a point on the conveyor system, such as another Decision Point or Photo Eye, or an Entry Transfer or Exit Transfer. The default options assume that you connect output ports from the Decision Point or Photo Eye to the defined destination. See Sorting for help on setting this up. Use the drop-down box on the right for suggestions on what you might enter here. Possible values might include:

  • outobject(current, 1): Sends the item to the object connected to output port 1 of the Decision Point or Photo Eye.
  • outobject(current, duniform(1, nrop(current))): Sends the item to the object connected to a random output port of the Decision Point or Photo Eye.
  • outobject(current, getitemtype(item)): Sends the item to the object connected to the output port number of the Decision Point or Photo Eye that is the same as the item's itemtype value.
  • outobject(current, getlabel(item, "Routing")): Sends the item to the object connected to the output port number of the Decision Point or Photo Eye that is the same as the item's "Routing" label value.
