How To Use The WMS SDK

Adding A Grid File

Running Your Simulation

Select a grid.

Select a grid.

Select desired core software version.

Select desired core software version.

If you are unsure which software version to select, always choose a STABLE version, as these have been fully tested. Preview versions are still in development or testing and may contain new features, fixes, or upgrades.

📘

Ensure you select the correct version (AS Planner or AS Router) depending on what you are testing. For example, if you are emulating a live site, use the same logic software as that system. If you are using a port such as a FusionPort™, it will only work with the AS Router software.

Start or resume simulation.

Start or resume simulation.

  • Start from original state: Starts the simulation from the state of the .aslog file as it was when originally added.
  • Continue simulation: Resumes the simulation from the state where it was last stopped in the SDK. This option will be grayed out if it is the first time running the simulation.
Starting Simulation process.

After a few seconds, you should see the "Start System" and "Stop Simulation" buttons.

  • Start System: Starts the system and makes the robots begin moving. This button will change to "Stop System" while the system is running. You can also start and stop the system via the Service Console.
  • Stop Simulation: Completely stops the simulation and saves the current state, allowing you to continue it later.
System is now running.

Additional Features

Check Module Versions

Great for troubleshooting and double checking the different modules running.

Extras

  • Start Service Console (Toggle): Enable this if you want the Service Console to start automatically when the simulation begins running.
  • Start AutoStore System (Toggle): Enable this if you want the system to start in Running mode as soon as the simulation begins.
  • Start HTTP Test Client (Button): Click to open the HTTP Test Client window. This tool allows you to test or individually send different interface methods to verify that the interface is working correctly.
  • Start Service Console (Button): Functions the same as #1, but allows you to open or start the Service Console at any time.
  • Documentation (Section): Provides quick links to useful documentation you may need.
