Re: [EnergyPlus_Support] VRF Error



It means the VRF system turned off since the outdoor temperature is 
above 20C (the maximum OA temp that allows operation).

You can either increase the input for Heating Maximum Outdoor Dry-Bulb 
Temperature from 20C to 25C and assume the performance is unaffected by 
this change from manufacturers recommendations, or include a backup 
system to condition the zone when the VRF system is off.
