Default Notify Upstream of Blocked Length ?

Hi , what is the effect of "Notify Upstream of Blocked Length" of a conveyor? I read the mannual, but cannot understand.

I check it and test in a model. I see no difference.

In what situation should I use this option?

Hi,

I have done a small sample model to show the difference with using "Notify Upstream of Blocked Length"

It is the bottom conveyor system that use "Notify Upstream of Blocked Length".
Conveyor26 have "Notify Upstream of Blocked Length" checked.

I am setting the size and color of the items in the Sources.

I think this model will show you the difference.
