Delay operator after load

proyect-rev01.fsmHow can i delay an operator after he makes a load in the processor?

I want to simulate that after the load he makes another operation in the same processor, once he finishes the delay he can proceed to the next operation.

Please, anyone could help me?

You can set the load time of the operator to the delay amount you want. If you want the delay to happen right after he picks up the item, you can have a small process flow activity block that fire when he loads an item, then have a custom code activity that stops him, then a delay, then a resume activity.

proyect-rev03.fsmI did this but it doesn't work fine:

They don't respect the delays as i want it.

I want the operator delay to work just after the processor setup time is finished.

So the item will not be processed until the operators delay is finished as well? I'm confused on what is supposed to happen when. Your processflow is firing too much, so it fires for both operators when an item finishes setup at a processor.

The exact thing I'm looking for is that when the operator finishes the setup time the operator stops for about 25 seconds, then resumes. That stop is in order to simulate that the operator is filling a checklist.

Did you understand? I'm having a hard time with this :/

Could you explain me?

I use that as a breath activity, meaning at a specific time multiple events fire, so that allows the activity to fire above, the item is then processed, and the operator is stopped. Without it the operator is stopped before the processor changes from setup to processing, so the item will wait the 25 seconds before it is released to be processed. Sometmies lots of events will happen all at once, and this gives a buffer to the order of events that fire.

joshua-s-error-delay.fsmI tried to change the basic delay for a task sequence delay in order to make a statistic out of it, but it throws me an error "Task executer activity "delay" in "process flow"

Do you know why is that?
