I have an operator connected to 2 dispatchers. The operator performs a task which uses "Dispatcher1" but goes into a down-state during the processing. I want the operator to pass the task to a different operator connected to "Dispatcher1" and not to the first output port of the down-state operator "Dispatcher2". How can this be accomplished? Please see an example model attached.

Hi @Nicholas D,
I was able to modify your model to do what you want. In order to test my logic, I added a second processor, and it should be working as desired. I only changed the code on the "Pass To" of Op_Both to check which processor it's working on when he is passing the task back. Then, based on that, the task is returned to the correct dispatcher and passed to the next available operator connected to that dispatcher.
I hope this helps! Let us know if you have further questions!
