Could Not Dispatch Task Sequence

[ FlexSim 22.0.1 ]

Hi:

I am doing a drill in "Flexsim: Simulation Software Primer." It is on pages 113-114. I created a packing machine and defined its breakdown timetable. It is shown below.

However, after running the program, it showed "Could Not Dispatch Task Sequence.

Packing_1 is not a valid dispatcher, and the task sequence could not be dispatched."

The flexsim program is attached. Primer_3-3A.fsm

Before I added the timetable, OtherBreaks, everything was fine. And the program is shown below. Primer_3-3.fsm

Can anyone help?

Did you copy the "OperatorBreaks" time table and onyl change the members? The down function is set to have the member travel to a location. As a fixed resource, the combiner/processor can not do travel operations, so you should choose a different option like "Stop Object" instead.

You are right, I just copied from Time Tables OperatorBreaks to make the OtherBreaks, and thank you for your suggestion; now it works.
