Default BasicFR processing accepting multiple items at once

Hello

I'm trying to make a processor (out of a BasicFR) that can simultaneously accept two or more items.
In attached model first four items from source one are transported to the BasicFR, then four items from source two are transported. My goal is to have those actions be done in parallel using just one BasicFR.

Btw, queues and task executers, as well as how items are placed in front and behind the BasicFR, are there purely to make debugging easier, don't heed much attention to them.

Hi,

to receive more items, they have to be received later in the runtime. Further on you have to control the amount of received item number. The material flow has to work without the taskexecuters. The control over the maxcontent should be independent form the OnEntry-Trigger. Otherwise the simualtion waits until a item enters the BasicFR.

Maybe the attached model gives you a hint.
