Machine utilisation (2 shift operation)

[C]

Dear all
I'm trying to figure out my machine utilisation by plotting: {[Server1].Utilisation}.
Since I assume a 2-shift operation the machine actually stand still during night. When plotting the utilisation of the machines the overall average utilsation obviously turns out extremely low since the idle time ties into the calculation.
Is there a way how to calculate the utlisation of the machine only during it's actual operation time?
See my example attached.
Kind regards
C

C,

Use the StateTimes output for the Server to calculate the appropriate measure for utilisation. You probably want (working time) / [(working time) + (idle time)]. In that attached model, I have given the Server the following CustomOutput:

   { util 'this.StateTimes("Working")/(this.StateTimes("Working")+this.StateTimes("Idle"))' }

and have changed the input to the Graph to plot that quantity.

Thanks, works just like expected!
