Dear all,<br>
<br>
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 <b>version
10.8</b> (July 2004) I use the following *.ctl file which works well:<br>
---------------------------------------<br>
* Control function
<br>
# senses the temperature of the current zone.
<br>
0 0 0 0 # sensor data
<br>
# actuates air point of the current zone
<br>
0 0 0 # actuator data
<br>
1 # No. day types
<br>
218 248 # valid Fri 6 Aug - Sun 5 Sep
<br>
1 # No. of periods in day
<br>
0 11 0.000 # ctl type, law (match temp - ideal), start @
<br>
10. # No. of data items
<br>
5000.000 0.000 5000.000 0.000 1.000 3.000 -5.000 1.000 0.000 0.000<br>
# Function:Zone links
<br>
1,0,0,0,0<br>
----------------------------------------<br>
<br>
However, this file does not work under the latest version 11.4. The
simulation aborts even before requiring the external file (e.g.,
*.dat).<br>
<br>
Any advice on the changes made in the latest version on how to import
external data files (building zone control) is highly appreciated!<br>
<br>
Thanks and best regards,<br>
Doreen<br>
