Statistics for Network Node and TrafficControl

Hello everyone,

i try to simulate an AGV, that should move through 2 gates (which i tried to simulate with some NetworkNodes), because of the temperature differences between these Rooms i would like to know how long are both "gates" open at the same Time.

Do you have any suggestions how to simulate this.

Thank you for your Help and Suggestions.

This sounds like something that could possibly be solved with the use of a Statistics Collector. For us to provide accurate assistance, it would be helpful if you uploaded your model (or an example model) to this post or in a private question. That way, we can edit your model directly.

Thanks!

Adding on to what Joshua has said, you will listen to events such as "On Arrival" or "On Continue" for these network nodes. The Statistics Collector can help you measure and record this data and then you can export it or graphically display it. Here's an example:

This can be done using Process flow with triggered sources or wait for event activities where they fire when something arrives or leaves the network node. You can put 2 wait for events between a zone and then gather the statistics from that zone, one of them being the staytime.
