Selectively Pausing Specific Tasks During Simulation

You can pause/stop a specific robot while other robots are continuously running.

Selectively pausing specific tasks allows you to determine the impact of one robot over another in cases where a robot might stop working.


Before you begin: Create a station with multiple robots, with each robot having tasks. Create a nominal task at the station level and sequence them in parallel, such that they are running simultaneously when the simulation is played.

  1. From the Sequencing side tab, select the nominal task.


  2. Press Play  to play the simulation for the nominal task.
    The simulation begins playing, and the Simulation Tools context toolbar appears.
  3. From the Simulation Tools context toolbar, click Pause/resume simulating tasks .

    The Simulating Tasks panel appears, and lists all of the resources and their respective tasks that are currently playing.



  4. Click Pause Task to stop a specific robot task.
    The selected robot stops, as the remaining robots continue.
  5. Click Resume Task to resume the task for that robot.
