- First create:
- A Start Process, 'Start'
- A Generic Process, 'Process'
- An End Process, 'End'
- Use the Interprocess Connection tool to connect:
- 'Start' to 'Process' and to 'End'
- Switch to the Flow Properties tab
- Select Additional Properties Definition
- Now change the Context Parameter to Object
- Create three new parameters:
• 'Obj_Property1' – Integer
• 'Obj_Property2' – Integer
• 'Obj_PartNumber' - String
- Select 'Start'
- So into Define Object Creation Rules
- Switch to the Work Order tab
- Create two Object Types
- Both Default Object
- Set Min/Max for both to 1/1
- For the top line set Obj_Property1 to '1' and Obj_Property2 to '2' and Obj_PartNumber to 'Test1'
- For the second line set Obj_Property1 to '3' and Obj_Property2 to '3' and Obj_PartNumber to 'Test2'
- Switch back to the Object Selection tab
- Switch to Create Objects Based on Work Order
- Next select 'Process' and Customize
- Go into process Extensions
- Under ObjectActivated
- Click Insert Line
- Make it an Expression Action and Edit -
- Select ObjectTime from the left O
- On the right enter - ObjectTime * Obj_Property1
- Switch back to the Model Build tab
- Go into Objects and Containment
- Here check Enable Object Hover Handling
- Click Define Object PopUp
- Create three PopUps:
- PartNumber - Obj_PartNumber - String
- Property1 - Obj_Property1 - Integer
- Property2 - Obj_Property2 - Integer
- On the Simulation tab select Start, pause the model after the objects are created and hover the mouse cursor over each object to view the Object Parameters of each.
