I need to monitor operators' efficiency in my model, using CycleDiagram atom.
Could you please give me a sample model to find out how does it work?

How to compare operators efficiency, using CycleDiagram
Re: How to compare operators efficiency, using CycleDiagram
Hello Omid,
It's easier to use the statusmonitor instead of the circlediagram. The statusmonitor (which you'll find in the library catagory Results/Status) has been developed to show the status overview of an atom in a pie chart.
To connect the status monitor to an operator do the following:
- Make the channels visible (ctrl+r)
- Doubleclick in the green input channel of the statusmonitor, an atom selector window should now pop up.
- Select the operator you need to monitor in the list.
- In the sub window below choose Central Channel for this operator.
- Click ok.

Hello Marlies,
Thank you very much, it works like a charm
Status Monitor has 4 segments (Idle, Busy, Waiting for Operator, Travel to Job); What does Waiting for Operator declare exactly ? Or what is main difference of Waiting for Operator and Idle status!?

Re: How to compare operators efficiency, using CycleDiagram
Hi Ormid,
Assume that a process needs 2 operators. The process will not start until there are 2 operators available for the process. It can happen that 1 operator is already available, in that case it will be assigned to the process. When the 2nd operator is not yet available the 1st operator (and the process) will get the status "waiting for operator". So, it's not really idle, because idle means that there is no work at all.
