Simple conveyor to processor question

I have a conveyor and have processors along the sides of the conveyor. I simply want it flow item to go to the first processor if it's content is 0, else do nothing and move along and look at the content of the next processor. And so on.

You'll probably want to add decision points or photoeyes with a reference to an exit transfer for each processor so that you can tell it to exit to the processor.

I've added the connections as examples to the model. Also you could instead have a station on a side conveyor branch instead of a processor, like this:
