Queue - two transporters

Hello !

That's my model. I have problem with my queues (Kolejka 1, Kolejka2, Kolejka3) operators. Operator Jan Nowak should carry boxes to Combiner 1.

Anna Kowalska should takes boxes from Kolejka1, Kolejka2, Kolejka3 to Combiner2.

Thank you for every answer.

Hi @Sylwia K,

In order to use the operators to transport from the queues to the combiners, you should create center port (S) connections from the operators to each of the queues. Then, apply the following settings in the Queue Properties (as shown in the image below):

You will select Use Transport and then you can adjust the settings in the drop down menu next to the Send To Port box to have the operators pull round robin style (alternating) or use the first available operator, etc.

Let me know if this helps!

Hello,

Thank You for your helpful tips :)

Unfortunately there is one more problem. I would like to every operator to work on his own combiner.

I've tried many combinations but I still don't know where is a problem.

I would be very grateful for any tips or information.

Thank You

Here's a working model. Each of the queues are setup to call the operator depending on the combiner the item is being sent to. 12370-eksperyment-2.fsm
