the last field is the EMS variable type it's looking for like "schedule value".
__._,_.___
the name of the variable is in the key name field like " zone1:RefPoint1" and similar to rdd text.
exactly what the text is you'll need to puzzel out. you should be able to produce a list or edd file listing the possibilities, by running empty code only asking for this edd file to be written out.
search the ems guide for "verbose" to see what I mean.

Dear All,
I have defined a reference point in Daylighting:ReferencePoint. Let's say we call it "RefPoint1" which is for "Zone1".
I want to use this point as a sensor in the EMS application. So in "EnergyManagementSensor:Sensors", I have set the fields as follows:
Name: IndoorIlluminance
Output:Variable or Output:Meter Index Key Name: Zone1
Output:Variable or Output:Meter Name: RefPoint1
When I run the simulation, it gives this fatal error:
Invalid Output:Variable or Output:Meter Name = RefPoint1
Is it possible to define the sensor as I defined?
Regards
