How to close a port when there are two flow items on a decision point?

I would like to store 2 flow items in the DP12 when all the "even processors" are being utilized in order to save conveyor transportation time and store 1 flow item in the DP1 when all the "odd processors are being utilized" also to save conveyor transportation time.

I want the source "amarre de cables" to stop sending items when there are the two flow items store in DP12 and 1 unit store in DP1. Then resume the source once the processors are available.

You cannot have more than one item on a decision point.

Here is a model that hopefully works for now. I will continue to look at it to make it more accurate.

I have been working on this and found that decision points have Restricted Area settings that you can use to do what you are looking for. Take a look in the model at the decision point triggers. I have been able to get 3 items to stay before the even conveyors and then 2 items to stay before the odd chargers.
