Hi @Zoroze AO

I would suggest using lists and process flow. Are you familiar with process flow?

Thanks

112.fsm@Isaac Litster , I am not sure how to that. I want to divert product depending on which processor is running faster

@Zoroze AO, did @Tanner Poulton give you enough of an idea to resolve your issue? Or did you still need help? We may need more information on what it is you're trying to do, in order to help you further.

@Zoroze AO, I'm not sure what you mean by running faster. There's two possible interpretations.

1) If you're referring to process time: You should be determining the process times for each of the processors. This way, you would know which one is running faster. This value can also be accessed, if necessary.

2) If you're referring to which processor has a smaller queue in front of it: You can have a Conditional Port in your Separator that would determine which conveyor preceding the processors has fewer items on it and then send it to that set of conveyors.

Could you further explain how you determine which processor is running faster? Then we can help you send items properly. Thanks!
