Hi,
I am developing a model in which there are 3 components. A source with its interarrival time based on a normal distribution in order to randomize the input. A conveyor is connected to this and a processor is connected to the conveyor followed by a sink. My conveyor has 3 photo eyes on it. What i am trying to achieve is a processor that can vary its process time based on the blocked and clear status of the photo eyes. Additionally i want my process time to increase or decrease with a set rate. For this i was planning to use a kinetic variable whose rate, and upper bound i can fix. This will ensure that at particular state of the photoeyes, my process time will gradually increase. My question is that suppose i set a rate of 3 (TrackedVariable.rate=3) What are the units of this "3"? Will it be the same as the object i have connected it to?
