Hi,

If you could post your model, and elaborate a bit more of the difficulties you encounter, this forum might be able to help you further.

Kind regards,

Hi John, Is far as I know there is no standard to ignore the status. I don't know if the model is large, or you need the status monitored of many atoms or many different statuses are used? If these are within reasonable limits, then you best can create your own 'status' keeping functionality, that w...

Hello, How do you write these values to a table? On the exit trigger you could write the following (let's say the reference to the table atom is refResults): Do( label([waitingtime],i) := time - label([waitingtime],i), cell(nrows(refResults), 1, refResults) := label([waitingtime],i), settable( nrows...

Hello Mv2013, If you want to know the waiting time of each product (so the time a product stays it the queue), then just mark the time at the entrance of the queue and when a product leaves the queue, deduct this time of the current time: OnEntry of the queue: label([waitingtime],i) := time OnExit o...

Hello Wizard, I suggest you use queues for the bowls. Do you want to simulate operators? If not, you can enter some code on the entry and/or exit trigger of the queues (bowls) to open and close them. I will show you an example: On the onentry trigger you will put: If( content(c) = att([Capacity], c)...

Hello!

I added a very simple model which does exactly what you describe! Just check the code on the server and it is plain to see how it works (hopefully).

Kind regards,

Hello Terril,

For the various distributions, you can pick different default randomgenerators. Just check the help section for the distribution
Normal(e1, e2, {e3]). Here a bit more is explained also on the generation of random numbers.

Hopefully this will help!

Kind regards,

Hello Jojo, The standard deviation depends on the different values of runtimeM1. If you want to use the ED function StDev(e1,e2), every time you get a new runtimeM1, you need all previous values of runtimeM1 to recalculate StDev. This is needed because the average keeps changing, and therefore the d...

Hello Jojo, Attributes are standard variables of an atom. These attributes I mentioned are used within the Server atom. If you open the Library tree, select the atom Server and press F9, then select the tab 'Attributes', then you can see which attributes the Server has. Under the tab 'Events', you c...

Hello Roma, ED cannot read a string as a variable. Maybe you can use labels to achieve this: Do( Var([SommatieProduct1] ,vbValue,0 ), Var([SommatieProduct2] ,vbValue,0 ), Var([SommatieProduct3] ,vbValue,0 ), Var([SommatieProduct4] ,vbValue,0 ), Var([SommatieProduct5] ,vbValue,0 ), Var([Runner] ,vbVa...
