Output definition

The output definition tab tab is used to define output material flow from this tracker process unit.

This parameter tab is based on the parameter matrix concept. Use the Add button to add a new row and the remove button to remove a selected row. The columns of the matrix are described below.

For every output flow, a tracking material output (TMO) port will appear. The TMO ports can be connected to downstream tracker process units, or left unconnected to end the material trace at the current position. 

Material transfer

This column defines the type of material flow to use. The alternatives are:

  • Offline. The material flow is based on asynchronous tracking and the downstream tracker process unit will be an offline tracker process unit
  • Online. The material flow is based on real time tracking and the downstream tracker process unit will be a real time tracker process unit.

Material port name

This is the name of the tracking material output port (TMO). If the typed name does not start with TMO, the component will prefix the typed port name with ‘TMO’.
