Assign Operators to Scheduled Down Time
I would like to have an operator be assigned to work on a processor during scheduled down time (via time table) and I tried to copy the code from the MTBF/MTTR properties screen but it isn't working. Which part of the code transfers over?

Jill,
Here is a sample model that does what you want (I Think!). I needed to modify the downtime variable from parval(3) to parval(4). I also removed the message that gets sent back at the end of the task sequence and I added a travel task at the end so that you could see the operator moving. This will behave differently than a breakdown though. In a breakdown that uses an operator the repair time doesn't start until the operator gets to the machine. In this case the machine will come back online according to the time table, regardless of the operator and the time it took for them to get to the machine (they may never make it). The reason for this is because the Time Table and the MTBF/MTTR behave differently and the Time Table doesn't allow for this (At least without A LOT of effort). Good Luck, Brandon
