Maybe try making all file and folder names 8 characters or less.

Subject: [EnergyPlus_Support] Bin to FMT Converter

 

I downloaded the programs to convert a .bin file to an FMT file, but 
I am getting an error when I run the batch file.

When I type "MakeFMT Filename" in the command prompt, the following 
message appears:

forrt1: severe ,22.: input record roo long, unit 10, file 
C:\Documents and Settings\Tupper\WEATHER.BIN
Formatted file saved as Sterling_Worst_Hot.fmt

Although an FMT file is created, the file is empty.  I am using 
a .bin file that is not standard, in that we took the 30 year TMY 
weather data and created a new bin file with the worst case weather 
for a period in October.  This .bin file works with DOE-2 so I'm 
pretty sure the problem is not with the .bin file.

Any suggestions?

Thank you,

Kendra Tupper
