Hi,
My TEs are created using a process flow when the model runs, I add the required connection to objects using the "contextdragconnection" command. But for the AGV paths, since the connection needs to be defined as either "AGV Traveler", or "Location" on the pop up, the connections couldn't be created. Is there a way to do this using a custom code?
The AGV network has a command that can be used to add members to the network. We can call this command using the function_s() command, and passing it some specific parameters.
function_s(controlpoint,"addConnection",-1,agv);
Where 'controlpoint' is a reference to your Control Point on the AGV network, "addConnection" is the command being called. The '-1' is the kind of connection we're making. (Which means it will be a "traveler AGV" connection. Another number greater than 0 would correspond to the list of connection types found in the AGVNetwork Properties window, in the Control Point Connections tab.) And finally the 'agv' is a reference to the AGV or Task Executer you are adding to the network.
I've attached a sample model demonstrating this in action.
I guess without knowledge, I would try to parse ‘0‘ into the Type parameter instead of ‘-1’. Perhaps you find the function under the library tree in main tree for a control point. @jacopo_r but you want to delete a connection, did you try command contextdragconnection?
Yes, I also initially tried with contextdragconnection but every time this function runs, a small pop up window appears for me to manually choose the type of connection (AGV Traveler, Location, ...). I need the control point to be on the AGV network and for creating the connection function_s() works perfectly.
Also, I did not found the library tree you mentioned, can you give more information on how to access it, please?
