Are there Flexscript commands for starting an Experimenter run?

I have a model that will open in the background using command line options (similar to https://answers.flexsim.com/questions/21116/automatically-configure-and-run-a-flexsim-model.html). There were tips there for the flexscript commands to reset and run the model, however, I would really like to start an Experimenter run rather than using the go(); command.

Hi @Chris Ligetti,

To start an experimenter use.

applicationcommand("runexperiment");

Also, you can get more information from this link.

Hi @Arun KR,

Where should I use this code? When add this to "On Model Open" or "On Run Stop" it doesn't work and the software crashes.

Please advise.

Hello @Arun Kr

This code is not working for me in 22.1.3 version.

Do I need to make any changes in the code for this version? if so please let me know what the updated code is.

Thanks in advance

Karthik

You now need to specify the job you want to run.

You can try this but know that the function_s call may not be supported in a future release.

treenode experimenter = node("/Tools/Experimenter", model());
treenode job= node("jobs/myJob",variables(experimenter));
function_s(experimenter, "run", job);
