Hello,
In the attached model, I assign the "ChuteStatus" label to the chutes at every stage of the process flow and these statuses are constantly changing. I want to see the status of the chutes and how long they stay (seperately), how can I do this?
ex:
If you want to stay with using labels, then you can use a categorical tracked variable label. This is the same structure that is used to implement the object states. As such it can be set to store the history of values and total time spent at each of them.
The attached model shows an example. Each of the queues possesses such a label. A Process Flow randomly changes the value and updates a global table with the current totals each time this happens.
CategoricalTrackedVariable_Label.fsm
If you want to plot this data graphically in FlexSim, it might be easier to create a second state profile for the chute objects. How this looks can be seen in the tree of the multiprocessor.
You can then set the state in this extra profile in Custom Code activities.
This has the benefit that it will work with the default state graphs which you can add to a dashboard.
