Is there a way to check if a fluid tank port is open or closed?

Hi,

I was wondering if there is a way to check if the Input/Output ports of a fluid tank is open or closed? (Without looking at the 3D model) - I'm building a bigger fluid model involving multiple process flow logics. While I run the model, I'm looking to see the status of Input & Output ports of various Fluid Tanks (Probably from a Dashboard/Parameter table). Appreciate any inputs! Thanks

Software Version:

FlexSim 22.0.5

ports fluid fluid library port control

Because it is still an FlexSim object, it should give correct results for commands ipopen and opopen.

Thanks @Joerg Vogel , Is there a way to obtain the Output rate/hour. While we set the rates in the Object property, I'm looking to obtain the actual Output/hr from Fluid Objects. The regular Dashboard Charts (Output/h) don't work for Fluid objects. Thanks
