[Equest-users] eQuest crashing when trying to add Heat Recovery

[MattDubrovich at Eaton.com]

If you have Windows 7, changing the compatibility mode seems to significantly reduced the number of unexplainable eQuest 3.64 crashes.  I use Windows XP SP 2 mode:

Colin,

 

I have had this issue when adding equipment into eQUEST (only when I use eQUEST in Windows 7). I would suggest creating a quick model, add heat recovery, then go into the .inp file and copy the heat recovery text from the quick model to the .inp file from the model that freezes when you add heat recovery in the detailed edit mode.

 

You should then be able to edit the file in the detailed edit mode. I have no idea why it does this but I have had problems like this before when using Windows 7.

 

Hopefully this works,

 

Otto

Has anybody had any issues with eQuest (3.64) freezing up when trying to add heat recovery.  The system is just a central air handler/VAV system.  When I go to add Heat Recovery it lets me select which type of device, but just once I select one, it just sits there and thinks and never recovers.  If anyone has had this issue or knows of a fix, you're help would be greatly appreciated.  Thanks.
