Hi Gilbert,

I have attached the model that I hope helps you.

You should "S" connect the operator to the Exit Transfer and check "Use Transport" rather than the conveyor itself. And if you want to send items to a different output port you can add a Decision Point and "A" connect it to all the Exit Transfers. Then, in the Decision Point's properties, you can choose which destination to send the item to in OnArrival or OnContinue triggers. Another, probably easier, option is to use just one Exit Transfer (without a Decision Point) to determine where to send the item to without using code. There are several options in the drop-down menu by "Send to Port."

In order to learn more about conveyors there is an entire section in the User Manual that may be very helpful.
