Otto 1500 simulation test.fsmI am making a simple simulation of an AVG running freight from a point to another point in a warehouse. I am needing it to stop at designated stop areas before proceeding. How can I halt an AVG in a spot for a certain amount of time before it proceeds.
Hey @Chandler S, one thing you could try is using a Control Point (CP) and Process Flow (PF). Add a CP on the path where you want your Task Executer (TE) to stop.
Then add some PF logic. Spawn a token when the TE arrives at the CP (use the OnPreArrival trigger). Then use a Custom Code block to stop the TE. Have another one to resume the TE. Put whatever logic you want in between those two (I simply put a 10 second delay).
You can checkout the logic in this model: otto-1500-simulation-test_1.fsm
You can create this logic with task sequences. Make an event triggered source with a Create TS, Delay, Finish TS and Sink.
For the source, the event will be On Pre-Arrival at the control point. Assign a taskExecuter label to each token.
In Create TS, the task executer will be token.taskExecuter. Then the preemption will be Preempt Only.
Attached is a simple demonstration model:
