Open/close output

Hi,

I have a problem in my model.

The processors (Pesagem 01,02,03) only output when processor (Homogeneizador) also output.The objects not can be sent for the processor (Transporte), only will transport when the processor (Homogeneizador) finished the process. First time is normal, when objects are inserted at (Homogeneizador) the processors (Pesagem 01,02,03) should wait the process finish.

This problem I resolved.

I have another problem, Processor (Homogeneizador) only receive objects when processors (Resfriamento Reação 01,02) finish process.

All the changes I made can be found in your process flow.

Joshua,

My processor ("Transporte" in english "Transporter") not can receive objects while the processor "Homogeneizador" only when you are free to operate.

At the attached it is possible you see a creation of queue after "Transporte".

All processor works in function of processors ("Resfriamento Reação 1 and 2" in english "Reactor Cooling").

While ("Resfriamento Reação 1 and 2" in english "Reactor Cooling") not end the process, the processor ("Transporte" in english "Transporter") not can receive object.

I don't understand completely what you want, but you can do all of this by using OnExit or "OnEntry" triggers, and open and close ports on different processors, just make sure you have a rest trigger that defaults the processors ports to open or close as needed.

I can not configure this, because, I need set up the process so that to "Transporter" only blocks the input when processing six objects. The logic I created are incorrect, because it does not processing six objects, it is processing only one and then closing the input port.

[joshua_s]

Use process flow for some of your logic. You could create a label that increments everytime an item goes through, then on the 6th item close the port, but it is much easier to use process flow with an event triggered source, a batching activity, then a custom code to close the port.

You can help me to release this logic?

What wrong this model? I don't know set up this logic.

Is this what you were going for?18671-linha-01-rev-03.fsm
