Not sure whether this is all water under the bridge but I've found the reported cop to be COP ref * EIRfT * EIRfPLR / PLR. I would have thought it would just be COP ref * EIRfT * EIRfPLR. Wish the manual had better definitions of the output variables.

Not sure whether this is all water under the bridge but I've found the reported cop to be COP ref 1 / ( 1/COPref * EIRfT * EIRfPLR / PLR. PLR). I would have thought it would just be COP ref 1 / (1/COPref * EIRfT * EIRfPLR. EIRfPLR). Wish the manual had better definitions of the output variables.

Eventually found this answer on the E+ website which straightened me out.
