Im sure it is an easy answer. Can someone tell me why the graphic for output per hour doesnt work in this simple model? Processor Stats.fsm

Hi @Michael D6,

The reason why your graph isn't populating is because you aren't letting the model run long enough. The output by hour graph will update every 1 hour with the total amount of items, so until you hit one hour of runtime nothing will appear on the chart. Try running your model at a faster speed and see if the graph populates after a bit.

@Jacob W2 is there a statistics plot that would show output over a shorter period of time? Thanks for clearing this up.

The output by hour chart has an interval setting with options ranging from 1 second to 1 week. I guess the developers decided that "Output by Hour" sounds/reads better than "Output by Time Interval".

If you want an interval that is not offered, you can 'install' the chart components and edit the value directly in the statistics collector that becomes accessible that way.
