ASRS - Movement Specifying

I'm trying to model ASRS retrieval machine that feeds combiner each time when it is empty.For example,if combiner finishes process while ASRS loading one item into racks,I want ASRS to put it into combiner with additional 3 from racks. ASRS-Movement.fsm

Hi @Yiğit S,

I'm not sure if I understand the question correctly, so I'd like to clarify. Is the combiner you mentioned "Processor1" in the attached model? And what I understand is that if "Processor1" finishes processing, it should trigger the ASRS to retrieve 4 items from the rack and place them all in "Processor1". Is this correct? I've updated the logic to reflect my understanding.

Thank you for your answer Tanner,yes I have forgot to update the model.Does it require minor changes to replace processor with combiner and signal ASRS to pull items when combiner is full empty? I have tried but I encountered some errors

If you upload what you're working with (the up-to-date version of your model), then I'll take a look at it and see if we can figure something out.

@Yiğit S,

Take a look at this updated version with a combiner. I added a priority to the task of moving objects from the racks into the combiner. The priority causes these tasks to be executed before tasks of lower priority.

Hopefully this is closer to what you need. I don't think I understood correctly the first time.
