elapsed time.fsmHi, I would like to ask for some help. How do I record the total process time of each item type in the global table? I'm using a statistical distribution and I want to get, for example, the output of 20 boxes and increment the process time it use in the global table.
Example:
ItemType1: Box1 processing time 20 sec, Box2 processing time 22 sec... by incrementing i will get the total processing time of each itemtype.
How can I achieve this? thank you for answering.
Hi @Aries Vash ,
I followed the same logic you did in your On Exit Trigger of the Queue to increment the Output. To do the same for the item staytime, you can reference the staytime of the last item that passed through the processor with:
Model.find("Processor1").as(Object).stats.staytime.value
I put this in an On Entry Trigger of the Queue, because at the On Exit event of the processor, the staytime value had not yet updated.
I demonstrate in this gif the processing time being incremented for each type as I step through the model. The Model runtime on top shows it is accurate.
Hope this helps!
Sweet!!! Thank you so much for the answer, this works the way I need it.
Also just to add I've done some searching from older question while my question here is not answered yet.
its seems that it can also reference from:
getitemvar(item, 2)
in the processor to increment the total processing time the way you did with the queue on entry
Model.find("Processor1").as(Object).stats.staytime.value
Overall thank you!!
You're welcome!
Yes that's another great way to access the processing time, glad it worked out!14 People are following this question.
