Re: [EnergyPlus_Support] RE: Call for IDF Editor Suggestions





Benson,

It looks like both AvailabilityManager:OptimumStart and AvailabilityManager:HybridVentilation were left off as \key choices in the AvailabilityManagerAssignmentList object in the Energy+.idd file. Since the IDF Editor depends on the Energy+.idd file that was causing the problem you were seeing. We will try to get that fixed for the next release of EnergyPlus.

Hi Jason

I've observed the following with IDF editor which may require a minor fix.

AvailabilityManager:OptimumStart is not listed in the list of selectable object types under AvailabilityManagerAssignmentList. I understand that it should be one of the options, based on the the documentation and usage in the example file 'OptimalStart_RefBldgLargeOfficeNew2004_Chicago.idf'.

The IDF runs fine once it's typed in, but it was a slightly confusing when IDF editor didn't provide it as a selectable option and highlighted it as an invalid input when I typed it in.

Kind Regards
Benson
