Default splitting material with TE from conveyor

Hi,

I try to split material flow after a conveyor to two other conveyors by using a Taskexecuter (Lift).

Example model shows what I´m looking for.
With old conveyor it was very easy, with new conveyors the lift is used only for one port!

Does anybody have an idea?

You have 1 exit transfer object for each output from a conveyor in the Conveyor module. The 2 exit transfers in your model are sitting on top of each other. You've only set up one of them to use the lift.

You can drag the exit transfers on the end of the conveyor so that they don't sit right on top of each other. You need to check Use Transport and connect both of the exit transfers to the lift. See the image below.
