  1. Before you start adding state variables to a library object, I suggest that you first familiarize yourself with all of the existing states. One easy way to do this is to instantiate the object (e.g., Worker1) and then go to any expression field and type "Worker." and look at the list. In the case of Worker, there are over 100 states, functions, and properties built-in to the Worker object. Another way is to subclass the Worker, then go to the Definitions tab of the MyWorker object and you can see all of the built-in definitions by category: There is a pretty good chance that what you need is already there. But if not, use the same screen illustrated above and add whatever state (or property, event, ...) that you need. As far as referencing or assigning that custom state or a built-in state, it is done using ObjectName.StateName. For example if you added a state named TimeStartedMove to MyWorker, and you wanted to assign that value, you might assign MyWorker.TimeStartedMove to TimeNow. The tricky part, especially with more complex objects like Workers, is to determine exactly when/how to assign that value. Sometimes you can interact with the model itself to insert an Assign at the correct location (let's say in the Loaded Add-on Process). Or sometimes you might need to override the process logic in your custom object. The SimBits RecordDistanceTraveled and ElectricVehicle are examples to review.
  2. Hi all! I am simulating a facility with nearly 40 servers, each one starting with some entities in the input node at initialization and having a different capacity. Each server has a 0 input buffer capacity. My entity creation is currently set to having an interarrival time to be 4.33 weeks (1 month) with a random number of entities created. Currently, it runs 24/7 and does not care about the time, but I want to incorporate that. How can I make it so that the entities arrive once a month, let's say the first Monday, at 8am? How can I make it so the servers are only processing between 8am and 4pm Monday - Friday? The work schedule doesn't seem to work for me, but I could be doing it wrong, since I have a 0 input buffer, which I can't change as it's part of my routing logic for overflow. I would be happy with using timers or a process logic if someone can explain it to me. Ideally, the entities only arrive when it's during the working time, and the entities remaining after 4pm are just put on hold until 8am the next day. Thanks in advance!
  3. Thanks. I would think since there are so many models in the forum and other sites that would be beneficial to be able to use for solving problems that Simio would allow these models to be opened in a commercial version of Simio.
  4. Happy new year! One thing that I noticed is that with this model, the server never have a state of "blocked". I increased the processing time of Server2 and added a status pie to Server1. The server 1 is either Processing or starved, but never blocked according to the pie. But it should be blocked part of the time since I increased the processing time of Server2 to force this. It looks like the Server1 only accepts a new item to process if the path between Server1 and Server2 has room for at least one more vehicle. So the time that it should be blocked is considered as part of the "Starved" instead. I tried to figure out why this happens without success. Anyone knows why this happens? I attach the model to the post. Thank you! Input Server1 not blocked.spfx
  5. Hello all I am relatively new to Simio and DES. I am trying to model a pallet conveyor. It is a closed loop conveyor. I use the "vehicle" as the pallet that loops around the conveyor. At the source the part (default entity) is loaded on the pallet. At the sink the part is unloaded. The problem that I am encountering is that the vehicles from time to time pile up at the sink, then after a certain amount of time they continue back to the starting point "Source1". This happens more the more I increas the "initialnumber in system" of vehicles The transfer-in Time for the sink is set at 0. At the model trace I read this for the "Input@Sink1" : "the in Token waiting at VisitNode step for '1' other processes to complete." I would apreciate any advice. Many thanks!

  6. Hello there, this is my first post here and I hope someone can help me with my problem. I´m quite new to Simio and working on my first project. I have some "return entities" that are considered "bad" at the end of the production. So they will get collected in a server which is used as a storage and get returned to the factory every 24 hours, to get reworked, if there is capacity left. Now, I want to check if there is capacity left in the destinated server and in best case, reserve the needed capacity before, before I route these entities towards it. After the entity arrived in the server, the reserved capacity should get released again. I couldn´t find a good example here in the forum or via google search, as in the SimBits, how to solve this the correct way. Maybe someone here can give me a tip, how to. Thanks in advance. Aljonator
  7. hello :), I'm trying to make a model with three servers. Everyone uses different Workers type and have different operation time per entity (no problem in these points). The difficult part is the next, every work center (server) has a different setup and changeover, and both happens without the presence of the entity. I mean the setup of some servers starts when the entity is created, (before the arrival to that server), and after the operation the changeover has to be done, in both cases we need to use or assing a worker. How can I do that?
  8. This helped in some applications, especially use cases where multiple servers are in series and I need the operator to focus on the start or end of the process. Thanks! However, when servers are in parallel the operator tends to run back and forth between them. If I were to assign a higher priority to one line, the worker would focus on that line only. i.e. if he empties the que of parts in the input buffer of Server 1, he goes down to work on only 1 part at Server2 before going right back to Server1. Rather, I'd like for the operator to clear all parts in the que at Server1 before walking down to Server2 and vice-versa. I've tried doing this through process logic however I get stuck trying to evaluate which server the worker is supporting.
  9. Hello, I have two concerns. In one of my small models I want my transporter to make a round and pick up the entities at the different locations and bring them to a destination (Server1). In addition, I would like that the individual times are measured with a state MyModelEntity.TmpStart and MyModelEntity.Duration, in order to calculate afterwards with a transport cost rate the cost for each individual part. Unfortunately I'm getting desperate with this and getting various error messages, does anyone know how to implement this? Best Regards, Gashi
  10. Hello guys, I am new to the Simio software and also to this forum, but I was told that if I seek for any help I shall find it here. I have a project regarding Mixing and filling lines, and would need some help with solving it. In principle there are 10 mixers and 4 filling lines, each filling the specific jerrycans volume. There are cleaning times involved and would also need help with programming them. I am stuck in the mud at the moment, because my knowledge is insuficient, and would really appriciate some help. I am attaching the word file for a beter view of what is going, and my email if you want to speak with me directly. I am thankful in advance for any kind of help.

  11. Hi Grant, I see your point. Lat of -160 gets you eastern part of Pacific, and Lat of +160 gets you Asia, but it cuts off at Lat 180 regardless (see image below). I will ask about this, but I think your best short-term plan is to get an image from a mapping app (see image below), paste it in and do the lat/lon math.
  12. Hello! So I am using a source that is sending out 9 different entities, each with a priority 1-9. They are listed in a Data table called 'Part Data' This is the 'Table Row Referencing' call I am using in 'Before Creating Entities' in the 'Row Number' section: PartData.Priority.RandomRow I want to switch this to use a Random.Normal(mean, sd) - is that possible with discrete values in the table? Thank you for any help you can provide!
  13. Got issues with a combiner. i have a server that processes the member parts but has a 0.1 probability of going to scrap, this means the batch size has changed. the parent part has a integer state that gets updated when this happens but doesn't update the combiner batch quantity property. I have attached an image showing this issue. you can see the pallet number displayed which is the way i match the parts with the correct pallet. the pallet(parent) also displays the batch size using the same integer state which i use in the combiner logic. Theres a pallet with 4 items on it and it shows the batch is 4 so why wont that process it? Also attached the whole model so you can look at it all Batch and Scrap.spfx
  14. Unfortunately you are not able to concatenate those pieces together to get a State Variable reference that will work. You can really only piece things together, or search through and find part of something within a name, with a String. Strings are not able to be understood as a State Variable reference, nor converted to something that could be understood. Instead, I might suggest an approach with a Data Table. Although this adds a tedious step of putting everything in to a Data Table, it then becomes really easy to Search the Data Table for the State Variable you are looking for. I attached an example model for you to investigate. In this model, you need the Data Table with a String Column so that the Search step can look through this collection of Strings and find the String that Contains certain substrings. See the Search's Match Condition property and the String Contains function. Also, the Data Table could contain a State Property column which then references the State Variables you created in the Definitions tab. Or, you could use the State Columns and Assign the values right to the column. Happy Modeling! Liz StateVariableInDataTableExample.spfx
  15. Hey, I've got a quick question on how to route to a combiner with the longest waiting time in their parent queue. I think it should be quite easy, but i cant seem to make it work. What i have been doing is setting the selection goal of my routing node to largest value, and select from a list. This largest value I think should be the the longest waiting time in the contents of the parentinput queue. I have tried this multiple ways both using assosiated object and without. When i recall the number waiting it seems to work, but with recalling the waiting time i'm doing something wrong. My current expression is: Candidate.Node.AssociatedObject.Combiner.ParentInputBuffer.Contents.TimeWaiting(ModelEntity) or Candidate.Combiner.ParentInputBuffer.Contents.TimeWaiting( object ) both seem to work for content.numberwaiting. I think i am describing the ( object ) part wrong but cant find how i should write for the modelentity otherwise. I have tried to recall a specific entititype like so --> TimeWaiting(Truck) this also does not work. Does somebody know how i can acces the ParentInputBuffer.Contents.TimeWaiting? Greeting Piet

  17. I was inspired by the VehicleX3 (vehicle with operator) that was shared on this forum. I would like to use this type of VehicleX3 with an operator who is a worker to simulate a process where the operator is required to take breaks after certain periods of activity. To implement this logic, I think it would be helpful to have Reliability Logic for the worker object in Simio. This doesn't seem to be part of the standard library so I tried to create my own subclass version of Worker with the Reliability Logic "copied" from the Resource object. My attempt to implement this custom object seems to work as long as the custom worker object doesn't "move". If the custom worker object moves, I get the Runtime error "Possible infinite loop detected in process logic". Any assistance in getting the logic working properly, or pointing me to an existing custom worker object that has Reliability Logic incorporated would be greatly appreciated. I'm attaching my small example model to illustrate the error when the worker (P1) is required to move to the Dest1 server as a required secondary resource for processing.

  18. Hello, and thanks for the Vehicle with Driver model; it seems quite useful. However, I've run into a problem when using two different vehicles that require the same driver; wondering if someone can help. Situation is where a Part (Entity) requires Vehicle_A with Driver_1 to go from Source to Station_1, then requires Vehicle_B with Driver_1 to go from Station_1 to Station_2 (Exit). If another Part arrives at Source (requesting Vehicle_A) while Driver_1 is busy with Vehicle_B, the request gets put into the global VehicleRequestQueue. When Driver_1 becomes free/idle, it looks at the global queue and sees the request, but for some reason Driver_1 seems to ignore it ("...failed to find and plan an eligible visit request"). Is that because the request was for Vehicle_A and not the Driver? If so, how would I get Driver_1 matched up again with Part Entity requests for Vehicle_A? Thoughts? Thanks, John
  19. Hello, I'm new to both the forum and the world of simio in general. I am trying to simulate how much the maximum buffer could be in 2 points of my process which are defined by the Buffer_ST1 and Buffer_ST2 servers. My problem is that I would like the Buffer_ST2 server based on a condition that would be every time an entity passes on Input @ Buffer_ST1, the Buffer_ST2 server releases only one processed entity and not all those inside the server as it happens now, I hope for being clear and thank you in advance. I put the model in the attachment Buffer varianti trazioni V2.spfx
  20. I am trying to make a routing decision based on the Candidate node's routerequestqueue's summation of the entities user-defined property. If there are different types of entities with ex. different priority levels. I would like the routing process to choose the transfernode which has the smallest total sum of it's entities priority level. the transfernode that needs to be chosen also has a routing group attached to its entity destination type rule where its final machine has 0 buffer and due to a blocked destination rule, there will be a queue build up at the transfernode that needs to be chosen. I have thought about using a state variable for each node and using add-on process each time a unit enters and leaves a node but because the main model has many multiple nodes the node's entity priority sum has to be able to be accessed through the candidate.transfernode._________________. For example during the routing step in the process section, I have candidate.transfernode.destinationroutinggroupname.routerequestqueue which gives me the node's number of units waiting, but i need to be able to access the candidate nodes summed queued property. Is there either a way to directly access this information, have looked at the expressions and having a hard time finding something. failed attempt: candidate.transfernode.destinationroutinggroupname.routerequestqueue.population.defaultentity.priority.summation or is there a way to use the add-on process where i am adding/subtracting the priority levels, but somehow attach it to the candidate.transfernode's property Hopefully this makes sense. If you look at the file, please ignore the upper half and focus on the transfer nodes maintransfer, transfernode1 and transfernode1_1. maintransfer has an entered add-onprocess which is the subject of this question. the route process and it's selection expression is what I'm trying to adjust but find a way to express the candidate transfernodes of transfernode1 and transfernode1_1 (which are part of the XferRouting group). I'd like to choose and compare the total summed priority level of each node's queue. Simple_Routing.spfx
  21. Hello, I'm working on a project where we want to build a scheduling model. But there is one think that I'm dealing with for a while now. I want to capture mid phase stock. For example if we have part A, which has 5 sequences to be produced. But at previous order we did not push all the parts through production, so now we have some stock on different operations. What I want to achieve is, that when my order come I firstly look at general stock of finished products (OK). If there is not enough stock I want to look at how many parts I have on the stock before last operation, if there is enough I don't want to create new entities but use this stock and produced new parts. If there is not enough parts before last operation we of course look at every previous sequences and if there are still not enough parts only then I want create new manufacturing order and with that new entities. If any of you guys deal with system like that before it will be really helpful. If you haven't but have some idea how to solve this problem, it will also be helpful because I've already tried a lot of options and now I'm stuck. Best regards!

  24. I've hunted through the forums and online and cannot seem to find a fix for my simple application. I have 1 worker operating multiple work centers (Simio server). He should finish all work at one "server" before moving on to the next server. Otherwise, his utilization goes down substantially due to him bouncing back and forth between the servers and walking all day. I.e. Server A: Parts in Que: 1,2,3,4,5,6 Server B: Parts in Que 1,2,3,4,5,6 Worker is doing A1, B1, A2, B2, A3, B3, A4, B4, A5, B5, A6, B6 with a walking time inbetween each part. I want worker to do A1, A2, A3, A4, A5, A6, walk, B1, B2, B3, B4, B5, B6 I would prefer not to use constraint logic due to the complexity. I've read that somehow the solution seems to lie in setting the Secondary Resources "Repeat Group" status to false and attempting to use the "keep reservation" function, however I have not had any luck. I set the "keep reservation if" function to "ServerA.InputBuffer.Contents.NumberWaiting > 0" which in theory should fix the problem, however my worker continues running back and forth. Any help would be appreciated. Thanks, Jon
