[Equest-users] Assign more than one HVAC System to one Zone in eQuest

[Peter Baumstark]

Nimesh - I tend to do as much as possible in the wizard, and perform sanity checks, before switching to detailed edit mode. 

In this case I'll go to screen 14 of the DD wizard, highlight the  zone, select zone group details, then enter the exhaust fan parameters. 

Hope this helps.

The wizard function is great to get the model started (geometry, architectural, schedules and such) but not as useful to complete an energy model.  If you are just doing some preliminary modeling you may be able to just use the wizard mode to get some approximate results but even with that I would hesitate to provide results to a client using this mode.
