please i have the same question above and i do not understand the above answer

ConvergenceLimits, N1 , \field Minimum System Timestep \units minutes \type integer \note 0 sets the minimum to the zone timestep (ref: Timestep) \note 1 is normal (ratchet down to 1 minute) \note setting greater than zone timestep (in minutes) will effectively set to zone timestep \minimum 0 \maximum 60 N2 , \field Maximum HVAC Iterations \type integer \default 20 \minimum 1 N3 , \field Minimum Plant Iterations \note Controls the minimum number of plant system solver iterations within a single HVAC iteration \note Larger values will increase runtime but might improve solution accuracy for complicated plant systems \note Complex plants include: several interconnected loops, heat recovery, thermal load following generators, etc. \type integer \default 2 \minimum 1 N4 ; \field Maximum Plant Iterations \note Controls the maximum number of plant system solver iterations within a single HVAC iteration \note Smaller values might decrease runtime but could decrease solution accuracy for complicated plant systems \type integer \default 8 \minimum 2

ConvergenceLimits, 4;

this input where i can put it to generate the values (0, 1, 2) and without decimals (like 1.565 .... etc).

thanks
