[Equest-users] dd wizard - invalid argument

[Dahlstrom, Aaron]

Bruce -

The error shows up when I attempt to "finish" the DD wizard.

When I look through the PD2 file and the INP file in Notepad, neither have any explicit errors in them.

The PD2 file does have -

1)      RoofZoneErrorCode = 4

2)      TOUPeriodErrSeas1 = " "

I can get into the wizard just fine, and all the data appears correct. The problem is that when I "finish" the program crashes.

I just experimented with removing the TOU electric rate, and again, when I hit "finish" it crashes eQUEST with the error noted below.

Thanks for trying!

Any other suggestions?

It depends where you are in the process.  If you are getting a detailed sim report it should open to the errors part of the report.  If you aren't that far open the project BDL or INP files with notepad.  They will list warnings and errors as they are processed.  The error will be at the end, there may be contributing errors before.  All it really does is tell you where it kicked out, but it does provide clues.  When you run your simulation make sure the boxes are checked so it will run through errors and warnings.  You get better hints this way.

Folks:

I have gotten the following error several times on the same project.

I have rebuilt the file from scratch already once, and I'm wondering if there is another way to fix this error.

Any idea if there are reports or INIs that I can view / modify to find out where exactly this "invalid argument" is located?
