See attached model
I have 4 operators set for Timetable1 and 4 for Timetable2
On dashboard I have state bar of operators
I want to chart when they are down due to shift end, right now when the shift ends the operators are in idle state instead of break or down state
please help
Changing the state manually is an intuitive way to look at this, but it doesn't work quite the same way. This is because if an operator is in the middle of a task sequence when he goes down, the manual state change will immediately be overwritten by the task it's performing. What you can do is add a delay task sequence for the duration of the breakdown time. We did this by changing the down and resume functions from "Stop Input" and "Resume Input", respectively, to "Travel to Location, Delay Until Down Time Complete" and "Do Nothing". Then in the code for the down function, you can remove the travel task sequence, and for both of them make sure to still set the label values for "opAvail". Then in the State Bar chart properties->Utilization Analysis make sure to include "scheduled down" in the chart. See updated model.
THANK YOU
Want if I add
stopobject(downobject, STATE_Down) on Stop Function
And resumeobject(downobject, STATE_IDLE) on resume Function
Will that work the same way ?
@Raashid Mohammed The problem with stopping the object is that it will force the operator to stop in the middle of a task sequence.
Attached is your model with the changes that I've made. Is this more what you had in mind?
