You might also try the link below to downloadable training modules in .PDF format.  They might possibly be similar to other "free" training out there that gets you through the basics.  If you can ever find out where Marlin Addison is giving his 2 day eQUEST workshop, he's a great instructor.

Hi Robert,

The closest Dummies lesson I can think of is a Design Development Wizard introduction given by Energy Center of Wisconsin. Given by Keith Swartz. Its an on-demand webinar. Content below:

Ch 1 - 00:00:00 - Introduction
Ch 2 - 00:03:43 - Getting into the design development (DD) wizard; project and site data screens
Ch 3 - 00:31:50 - Project navigator: Building shell (office tower)
Ch 4 - 02:28:46 - Non-HVAC end uses to model
Ch 5 - 02:41:12 - HVAC system
Ch 6 - 03:07:05 - Warehouse shell
Ch 7 - 03:24:50 - Finishing the project

Very good course.
Lincoln

I used EQuest maybe ten years ago. Maybe longer.  Didn't use it much.
One LEED project that went bust and some Efficiency work at the utility where I worked.  But I joined this list quite a while ago because I use another DOE 2 using software product called "EnergyPro".  I sometimes ask DOE 2 questions on this list and I try to help out if I know something about what is being discussed, so I been around this list a while.

But wait...

Today one of my clients calls and wants me to do some EQuest runs.  I tell him I'm pretty rusty (I don't even have it installed any more) so he goes off to find somebody else to do the work.

I HATE TO LOSE WORK!

So, I am asking this list...

Does anybody have an "EQuest for Dummies" link or FAQ or step[by-step anything recommended for somebody coming back to EQuest, basically starting from scratch installation and all the rest.  I'd buy a book, but I don't think there are any.



Any help is appreciated.
