Create Predefined Factory Models

Run your simulation using one of the predefined factory models included in the simulator. Predefined factory models are simple and quick to configure.

Create the predefined factory model:

  1. In the simulations page, click Add Factory Model Add icon..
  2. Click a predefined factory model.
    The available predefined factory models are: Chocolate Factory and Tablet Factory.

    The predefined factory model is created. A message in the status bar located below the list of factory models, indicates if the creation was successful.

    By default, the factory model has no factories associated.

Create and associate factories:

  1. Click the name of a factory model.
  2. For each factory that you want to add:
    1. Click Create Factory Add icon..
    2. (Optional) Expand Customize and provide the name, description, and GPS coordinates for your factory.
    3. Click Create.
    4. Click the Stopped icon in the Running column, to start simulating the production for this factory.
      The icon you clicked becomes a Running icon to indicate the factory is now running. To stop the simulation for this factory, click this icon.

The factories you add to the predefined factory model appear in your instance of Oracle IoT Production Monitoring Cloud Service. Each factory contains set of machines. You can simulate the operation of the machines in your factory, see .

The simulator automatically creates a production plan for the new factory and its machines based on the daily plan values associated with each machine.
