Looks like in a number of cases the OpenStudio.idd for OS:ScheduleTypeLimits is out of sync with the EnergyPlus.idd for TypeLimits.

I'll investigate why this is the case, but it is problematic that we are generating idf, that while they run fine, other applications including our own find it invalid.
