I am trying to reset the watts on the following steam generator:
 
SteamEquipment,
    Direct Water,            !- Name
    unconditioned,           !- Zone Name
    Always On,               !- Schedule Name
    EquipmentLevel,          !- Design Level Calculation Method
    50,                      !- Design Level {W}
    ,                        !- Watts per Zone Floor Area {W/m2}
    ,                        !- Watts per Person {W/Person}
    1,                       !- Fraction Latent
    ,                        !- Fraction Radiant
    ,                        !- Fraction Lost
    General;                 !- End-Use Subcategory
 
I assumed I could use an actuator:
 
 EnergyManagementSystem:Actuator,
    MoistureGain,            !- Name
    Direct Water,            !- Actuated Component Unique Name
    SteamEquipment,          !- Actuated Component Type
    Design Level {W};        !- Actuated Component Control Type
 
But this causes a system crash, so I must not be doing this correctly.  I also tried to manipulate the schedule and could not get the right values to avoid crashing.  Can someone give me a little guidance?
