Realease box in processor by change variable

[robson_t]

[ FlexSim 22.2.0 ]

I need to pass a box in processor when my variable is equal 1, I try make the code in event On entry below:

/******************************************************************

Object current = ownerobject(c);

Object item = param(1);

int port = param(2);

int i = Test();

if(i == 1){

current.resume();

current.input.open();

}else{

current.input.close();

}

*******************************************************************/

I am using a user comand called Task(), it return 1 or 0, it is changed in User GUI.

The idea is when the Task() return 1, so we need to pass only one box, when Task() return 0, the processor start wait.

but this code no work, because the command "current.input.close()" stop the app, We need that the app continue running.

Hi @Robson T,

It's hard to know how to help without looking at your model. To receive a more accurate solution, please post your model or a sample model that demonstrates your question.

You can upload your models or other files by appending ".jpg" to the filename. Files ending in .jpg are not effected by the bug. You can also upload your model and other files to FlexSim's file share site. Include the file name in your question so that we know which upload to reference.

Instead of a user command, you could use a Parameter and reference it on the send to port picklist. In the screenshot example, if the parameter is equal to 1, the box will go to the processor, if it is equal to 2, it will go to the sink.

If your intention is to make so the box gets stuck in the queue, you could use the same parameters and delete the queue's second output port (the one that goes to the sink).
