The basicfr object is a FixedResource that is designed to be customized into a user library object. It passes almost all inheritable FixedResource logic to pick-list functions so that user library developers can specify virtually all functionality for the FixedResource.
Details
The basicfr is a sub-class of the FixedResource. It allows you to specify logic for its reset, entry, exit, and message triggers, as well as advanced functionality like stop object/resume object, pick/place offset, transport in notify/complete, transport out notify/complete, and other advanced functions.
In the entry, exit, reset, and message triggers of this object, you will need to implement logic that receives and releases flowitems using the receiveitem() and releaseitem() commands. There are also several more commands that you can use in processing items, such as setstate(), senddelayedmessage(), and all of the commands in the FixedResource category of the command list. This object is meant to be a bare-bones implementation of the FixedResource, where all logic is implemented by the modeller.
Commands
receiveitem()
releaseitem()
Extra Parameters for the Entry/Exit Triggers
The basicfr passes 2 extra parameters into its entry and exit triggers:
- parval(3) - the current value of its nroftransportsin variable.
- parval(4) - the current value of its nroftransportsout variable.
