AGV has to two different idle states in the model how to separate it.

As shown in below image the AGV is waiting to load the part once the processor completes the processing. So this is coming under Idle State. But there is another idle state in the model where AGV waits at Queue4. So I'm trying to separate the AGV waiting at Processor as different state i.e. may be waiting.

How to achieve this. I'm attaching the model for reference.

You have deleted your same question and my answer some time ago, wherein I showed to identify the different stations and updating the states in process flow.

Here you got an undocumented model that puts the idle state of ControlPoint2 as State "Full" and of ControlPoint3 as State "NotEmpty" into the bar chart.
