Re: [TRNSYS-users] number of instances

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

Jens,
  Most components are not limited in the number of instances that
can occur within a simulation. Unfortunately, Type65 is limited because
there is a predefined maximum size of the data structures that the
Fortran TRNDll.dll and the Delphi TRNExe.exe pass back and forth. You are
able to have a maximum of 5 plots visible at one time in TRNSYS 16. You
can have as many Type65s in your simulation as you want but only the
first five instances will display when the simulations run. You can
control which ones are visible to some extent because there is a Type65
parameter that allows you to shut off the online plot without removing
that instance of Type65 from the simulation. I often have a lot of
Type65s but with only 5 visible at one time.
Kind regards,
 David
