The IDF example you reference from the documentation for the EnergyManagementSystem:Sensor object is a little misleading. Zone Thermal Comfort Fanger Model PMV is actually an output variable of the People object, not the Zone object.
In the EMS:Sensor and Output:Variable object you created for PMV, you should replace Core_mid with the name of the People object assigned to that zone (likely Core_mid_ppl or something similar).
If you still see an error or warning, then you may need to extend the People object to define the input fields required to calculate thermal comfort (Activity Level Schedule Name, Mean Radiant Temperature Calculation Type, etc.).
There is a slightly related Unmet Hours question that you can refer to as well.
