Revision history [back]

Not sure how the people objects are set up in your input file so I will try to explain the example file inputs. In the example file AdultEducationCenter.idf the People object and the corresponding Activity Level Schedule are shown below. The activity level is set at 131.8 which is within the range of 70-1000 shown in the warning message you show in your question. However, your warning message also mentions OFFICE OCCUPANCY 2 as the schedule being used. So are you sure you are using the correct schedule for "activity level"? Changing the number of people will not get rid of this warning, you must enter an activity level (e.g., seated, walking, running, excercising, etc) that is within the range of 70-1000.
