This file fails with the following error:
** Severe ** Invalid Number in Numeric Field#2 (Limit Value on Multiplier
for Modulating Venting Open Factor), value=OPENCLOSESCH, in
AIRFLOWNETWORK:MULTIZONE:SURFACE=ZN_1_FLR_1_SEC_1_WALL_1_DOOR_1
If you open the file in IDF Editor, a 0 (zero) is displayed in this field. But
if you open the file in a text editor, you can see that the schedule name
appears twice, once here and once in the schedule field. If you replace this
with a 1, this error will be fixed.
