Bardok Posted September 7, 2018 Posted September 7, 2018 Good day everyone, I need to acess the average waiting time in a member input buffer of a combiner. First of all, how is there not an easy option to acess average time in queues? Most of the times I have to tally everything, which in turn doesnt work with experiments... It has been a real struggle. Anyways, I was using the approach of using an entyti state variable to record the time when it enters the member queue and another one to register when it leaves the given queue and then tally it. The problem is with combiners, the parent entity "wins" and so using ModelEntity.State Variable - reffering the one from the member - does not work. Any ideas? Thanks
agraunke Posted September 7, 2018 Posted September 7, 2018 I think "TheCombinersName.MemberInputBuffer.Contents.AverageTimeWaiting" is the expression you are looking for. -Adam 1
Bardok Posted September 11, 2018 Author Posted September 11, 2018 Thank you Adam, It does seem to work. But it is gathering statistics even when it is off-period (lunch break). Is there an easy option to not collect statistics troughout these periods? I have workdayschedule defined in the model, if that helps.
