[esp-r] Zone control: import of external data files

[Doreen Kalz]

Dear all,

I encounter the following problem with the import of an external data 
file within the building zone control: I want to import measured data of 
the operative room temperature for one building zone. Under ESP-r 
*version 10.8* (July 2004) I use the following *.ctl file which works well:
---------------------------------------
* Control function
# senses the temperature of the current zone.
    0    0    0    0  # sensor data
# actuates air point of the current zone
    0    0    0  # actuator data
    1 # No. day types
  218  248  # valid Fri  6 Aug - Sun  5 Sep
     1  # No. of periods in day
    0   11   0.000  # ctl type, law (match temp - ideal), start @
     10.  # No. of data items
  5000.000 0.000 5000.000 0.000 1.000 3.000 -5.000 1.000 0.000 0.000
# Function:Zone links
 1,0,0,0,0
----------------------------------------

However, this file does not work under the latest version 11.4. The 
simulation aborts even before requiring the external file  (e.g., *.dat).

Any advice on the changes made in the latest version on how to import 
external data files (building zone control) is highly appreciated!

Thanks and best regards,
Doreen
