The following Model properties are set up using the Plant Applications Administrator:

Property

Description

Maximum Run Time (Seconds)

optional: Type the number of seconds you want the model to run. The default is 0 (zero), which means the model will not time out. Typically, you will want to limit the run time of the model only if troubleshooting the model (for example, one of the stored procedures is in an infinite loop).

Model Processing Group

Used for multithreading. See the Multithreading topic for more information.

Turnup Tag

A value change of this tag triggers the creation of a new production event.

The Value

The Value the Turnup Tag must equal to trigger the creation of a new Tappi or production event.

Prod Day (HH:MM)

The time that the counter is restarted for the number of events made in that day.

Tappi Begin

This value is used as the 1st characters of the Tappi or Event Number.

Month Chars

The Tappi Month Characters used to generate the M character.

Use Prod Day (TRUE)

If set to TRUE, the Prod Day setting is used to determine the end of the production day and therefore the end of the month.  This will impact when the Month Character is changed to the new month.  If it is set to FALSE, then midnight is used as the end of the production day.

Common PU_Id (Optional)

If a Common PU_Id is supplied then the Tappi or production event is also created on this common production unit.
