[TRNSYS-users] TR: Automatic update of type inputs and outputs

[David BRADLEY]

Marcello,
   The proformas for Types 56, 157, and 96 are a bit special in that 
their ability to dynamically respond to an external file is programmed 
directly into the Studio. Your workaround sounds like the right way to 
proceed although I am not sure whether or not it will be a success.
Best,
  David
