[TRNSYS-users] sky temp (type 69) inconsistent inputs warning



Hi All,
 
I'm getting an annoying but work-aroundable error, but I'm curious see if there's a real problem. When running a simple deck file to create a climate analysis (no building, just radiations & temps, etc), I get a bunch of the below warnings, ultimately maxing out and causing a fatal error. I can get past it by increasing my max warnings, but I'm curious what the real issue is. I've checked for the things it says in the message but none of those conditions exists. Anybody got any ideas? Or does type 69 just get cranky easily?

    TRNSYS Message    317 : The sky temperature model has reported an inconsistency in the supplied INPUTS. The inconsistency has been fixed but should be investigated as it may lead to other problems. This error can be caused by a dew point temperature above the ambient temperature, a solar radiation value less than zero, or a cloud cover fraction less than zero or greater than one
