Default Problems to move the flowitem between two operators

Can someone help me? My intention is:

- the first operator go to station, load the flowitem, while the second wait in the second point;

- the first operator pass the flowitem to the second, and return to the initial point;

- the second operator travel to machine, unload the flowitem, return to the initial point and restart the process.

Obs: the process only can start if the second operator is in the second point.

I tryed to do something, in the first time, the pocess is good, but from second on the operators don't repeat the task.

Best regards

Hi,

You need to use coordinated task sequence, there are threads and models in the forum the shows how to use coordinated task sequence.

I´m sure this thread will help you:

http://www.flexsim.com/community/for...ead.php?t=1324

What I´m again not sure, if it would be more effectiv to use a queue between the two operators and open or close the input of it while the second operator arrives his point.
This way you don´t need any tasksequences, as I wrote in the thread.

Hi,

The queue would not a good solution because my intention with this is use the concept of coordinate task sequence in another model.

This is my other model:

Please see attached.

I moved the code to generate the task sequences to the entry trigger and updated the code using a coordinated task sequence.

I also disconnected the output connection from the queue to the processor and replaced it with a centre channel connection.
