Simulating State Machines with Transition Guards

[rosswoodruffe@gmail.com]

I'm new to Cameo Systems Modeller and I've been trying to simulate a simple state machine. I'd like the SM to transition to one of two states depending on the value of a property owned my the block that contains the SM. So if "x>100" it will transition to one state, but otherwise it will transition to the other.

I've tried various languages for the guard expression, but the simulation just does nothing when it gets to the event for the transition. The value property is showing up as a simulation variable and I don't get any error messages. I've tried using two different transitions (one for each condition), a decision node and even just having a single transition, without any events and the simulation still does nothing.

I'm obviously missing something but I have not idea what so I'd really appreciate some help.

Thanks,

Ross
