Outline the Goals of the Green Disk

Now that the goals and comments for the red disk have been established, comments for the green disk need to be added.

The green disk, acting as an acceptable package or product, will begin at the Entry Conveyor, travel through the Transport Conveyor, pass the Diverter to continue on the Transport Conveyor, and then stop at the Exit Sensor.

Green Path

The green disk, acting as an acceptable package or product, will begin at the Entry Conveyor and then move onto the Transport Conveyor.

  1. Add two [Comment] blocks to the {define Green Detected} block and change the comment to:
    1. Load green disk
    2. Move green disk on Transport Conveyor
    Add two [Comment] blocks.

    Once the green disk is loaded onto the Transport Conveyor, it will pass in front of the Load Sensor. When the green disk passes in front of the Load Sensor, the Diverter needs to be set to position in order to allow the green disk to pass through on the Transport Conveyor.

  2. Add another [Comment] block and change the comment to, 'Set Diverter to allow disk to pass through Transport Conveyor.’
    Add another [Comment] block.
  3. Once the Diverter has been set to position, the green disk will now pass through the Transport Conveyor. Add another [Comment] block and change the comment to, ‘Pass green disk through Transport Conveyor.’
    Add another [Comment] block.

    Once the green disk is on the Transport Conveyor, it will pass in front of the Pickup Sensor. When the green disk passes in front of the Pickup Sensor, the Transport Conveyor will need to stop.

  4. Add another [Comment] block and change the comment to, ‘Stop the Transport Conveyor once the disk reaches the Pickup Sensor.’
    Add another [Comment] block.
