How to create a token on each count change ?

Hello everyone,

I have a resource in my process flow alternating between 0 and 1. this alternation is controlled using buttons in a GUI (when I press the button 'F_F' it sends 1 to my resource and when I press the button 'F_M' it sends 0 to my resource).

My question is how can I create a token on each change of the 'count' variable in my reference function.

I tried using the event triggered source, but I couldn't properly link it to the resource.

Software Version:

FlexSim 19.0.0

proces flow resource event trigger

If the value are only changed by the GUI you could simply also send a message to the process flow and react to that with an even triggered souce.
