Hi David,

Yes the error message appears when I drag the component onto the Assembly Panel as you suggest. I will try to do as you suggest, thank you for the advice!

Regards,

Alasdair

Alasdair,
Are you getting the "component load failed" message when you try to drag an instance of Type230 out into your Assembly Panel or when you try to run the simulation? When I try to duplicate your steps, I get the "component load failed" message when I try to add Type230 to the project. The reason for that is that Type230's proforma was created with Trnsys17 and so is not backward compatible with Trnsys16. Type230 itself (the DLLs and the source code) both look to me as though they will work in v16 as well as in v17 so you could open the source code and determine what the parameters, inputs, and outputs of the model are, then create a proforma for Trnsys16.
Best,
David

Hello all,

I have having difficulty using a component from the user library. The component is Type 230 and the files I am using are accessed from http://sel.me.wisc.edu/trnsys/trnlib/library16.htm.

I have placed the .tmf and .bmp files in the location /TRNSYS16_1/Studio/Proformas/MyComponents and the .dll file in TRNSYS16_1/UserLib/ReleaseDLLs. The components appears in the studio as expected but when I try to insert it into my project the error message "Component load failed" is given.

Can anyone suggest where I am going wrong?

I am working with TRNSYS 16.01.0003.

Regards,

Alasdair Morton
