[TRNSYS-users] problems with Data Reader Type 9

[Charron, Rémi <remi.charron@nrcan.gc.ca>]

Hello,

I am experiencing problems with data reader Type 9c that I am using in my model. The problem occurs as a result of Paramater 4: Time interval of data.

If I try to input a Time interval 8 minutes or lower, I get the following message: An illegal parameter value has been reported in the model...

If I use any time interval above 8 minutes, things seem to work out, except if I use a simulation time step of 8 minutes or below. If I do that, I get a Range Check error.  For example, my goal is to use a Time interval of data of 60 minutes, with a 5 minute time step.  The smallest time step I can use without getting a range check error is 9 minutes.

I tried using reader Type9e and get the same errors.

Has anyone experienced the same problem, or is it something specific with my model?

Thanks,

Rémi
