Random Number Stream = 1?

If someone were to tell me to run a model by "using FlexSim's random number stream = 1"...what would that mean? Do I need to change the getstream(current) to getstream(1)? Because when I try doing that, the model does not resume after one of the machines breaks down and is repaired. It all just locks up with the machine down. So I'm not entirely what is meant by "random number stream = 1"

FlexSim 22.1.0

For example normal(10,3,1) is normal statistical distribution with a mean of 10, a deviation of 3 and random number generator number 1. There are predefined random generators 0..100 in FlexSim. And there are dynamically initialized generators by getstream(current) above 100, as 101, 102, and so on.
