[EnergyPlus_Support] Weather converter issues





I am trying to use the weather converter to format my site weather station data.  I find the help file lacking a concise list of conversion DataUnits.

 

Is there a key for barometric pressure in.Hg, wind speed miles per hour, wind direction compass points (N, NE, SSW), time in a 2:10 p format?

 

If not I can preprocess my file…

 

More importantly, it seems to choke on my 10 minute data file.  I set NumInHour=6, but I get following errors:

 

First read Hour number=0; Expected =1

First read Hour number will be used as hour=1 and reported if not same for each day read in

Warning ** Suspected missing data line after processing 1 days

Month=6 Day=9 Hour=1

Processing continues but may be in error

Warning ** DirectNormalRadiation    378.8 > max theoretical=   177.1 Wh/m² on date= 6/ 9 at hour= 5

 

These continue through the whole file processing, I only have global horizontal solar data for input reported as W/m², and this directnormal error seems to start at an hour crossing in the file after reading some sub hour data…Do I have to factor the input data for the shorter time step?
