Revision history [back]

In general it's not recommended to edit the OSM file directly like one might an IDF and the errors you're getting are likely due to OS not supporting the EP objects/fields yet. During an OS simulation the OSM file is translated to the in.idf file located in osm file folder > run > ModelToIDF.

To use EP features that are not yet exposed in OS, write an EnergyPlus Measure which will edit the in.idf file before it's translated to the out.idf file run by EP.
