Setup Event Trigger Source to listen to OnStateChange

How do I setup Event Trigger Source or Wait for Event to listen to OnStateChange or OnStateValueChange?

How should I fill in the Label Name or Value column? I think match should be used for Operation.

for Default State profile, should I fill in numeric "1" ?

To State (for e.g. Idle), should I fill in STATE_IDLE or "1"?

From State (e.g. Processing), should I fill in STATE_Processing or "2"?


Thanks

Hello @David Chan,

From setting up a model and having the wait for event assign the labels instead of match, it gives me the following values. 1629123453370.png

The ToState is the "setup" state. I think this may not be working for you because after the processor receives a flowitem and is no longer idle it goes to setup before processing.

StateChangeValue_MatchToAndFromState.fsm

Was this helpful? Let me know if I can assist you further.

@Jeanette F Thanks. At least I have your working example for testing out. It works for me now.
