[EnergyPlus_Support] Re: DOE commercial reference building file open error in EPlus 7.1

["abakshiyrgxyz" <abakshiyrgxyz@xxxxxxxxx>]

When I select one of the commercial reference buildings in the "IDFVersionUpdater" it provides the error message:


"No approriate TransitionV-x-x-to-V-x-x.exe files found. They may need to be downloaded from

http://www.energyplus.gov

click on Add-Ons and look for the link to download the Transition programs."


However, no upgrade to the utility can be found on the EnergyPlus website.
