Re: [TRNSYS-users] Trnsed file problem

[David Bradley <bradley@tess-inc.com>]

Dear Krishna,
  We have fixed this problem in version 16.00.0038, which will be
available from your distributor shortly. In version 16.00.0037, variable
names that start with CON, EQU, INC, and END are illegal because these
are recognized by the simulation input file parser as matching the
keywords CONSTANTS, EQUATIONS, INCLUDE, and END. Ever since its
beginning, TRNSYS has actually only paid attention to the first three
letters of each keyword. Since Studio is a jumping off point for
developing TRNSED simulations, what I would suggest you do is to generate
the TRNSED comments in the input file, then switch to editing the input
file in TRNEdit.exe. From there, as you correctly pointed out, you can
modify the illegal equation names and run the simulation from
TRNEdit.exe.
Kind regards,
  David
