Experimenter issues - max content value, multi zone control and stat collection

Hello,


I am trying to use the experimenter to acquire data for a range of values for 2 parameters I would like to optimize (qty of Curing Spots in 3 zones btw 30, 40 and 50 and qty of carriers that can be in the loop btw 100,120 and 140). Could you please help me resolving the issues below?

Issue#1, the experimenter results are not varying based on the parameter values, could you please tell me why the parameter values are not being considering by the experimenter?

Issue#3, I would like the stat collector to collect the time the token entered the Zone and the time the token left the zone. I added the events to stats collector, however, the statistics collector is shown empty. Is there a reason why I am unable to collect the time spent by token?

Thank you in advance for helping me out!

The property "MaxContent" only applies Fixed Resources (processor, queue, etc...). While the setting of the zone has the same name it can't bet set that way. (I think Process Flow activities do not have 'properties' at all).

Just put the parameter into the max. content field. That way it can also apply to multiple zones.

The Statistics Collector in the uploaded model does not have any events added to it. And if your goal is to track the entry and exit time, why do you read the 'Output' stat of the activities?

Here is an example of how the collector could be configured to get those values.
