Please look at the Auxiliary programs document -- it not only describes the 
Weather converter (which could transform the tmy2 format into the epw 
format), it also describes the epw format in detail.

These are warnings and do not need to be removed.

For the RunPeriod -- there are a specified number of minimum fields in the 
IDD, you would need to fill all those fields in your RunPeriod object.

For the Blank name -- surface=wall4, it has put in the name ROOM1 so it is 
considering that surface to be an internal surface to the zone (ROOM1).  If 
that is not correct, you should put in the proper name there.

The others are again just warnings and have been removed in V1.0.3 to 
lessen confusion.
