Question about control point of AGV system

I want to know if there are any functional modules in process flow that can realize that when an AGV trolley is driving in a section, its departure control point is set to the occupied state (so that it can not be occupied by the next AGV)

Thank you very much！

After i saw the changes in Nextlookfor work entries through simulation

i understood the real meaning for control point settings（Deallocate type). Deallocate at next control point means when AGV is on one path ,the start control point and end point are both occupied(the value of "isAvailable" is 0 ----- occupied). Deallocate when past current means only the end point is occupied.2021_3_18.fsm

You can also see this in the model if you check Show Control Point/Area Allocations in the AGV Network Properties (below). Your question did sound like you wanted to allocate and deallocate them in your own code which is why you got the answers you did.

@Yu S Please take a look at the cpallocate() and cpdeallocate() commands. You can use them in a custom code block.
