How to Set Specific Parameter Sets in jEPlus Instead of All Combinations?

In jEPlus, I want to define two distinct parameter sets for heating and cooling setpoints, rather than having all combinations. For example, I need only the following sets:

  • Set 1: Heating = 18, Cooling = 22
  • Set 2: Heating = 19, Cooling = 23

When I define these as parameters in jEPlus, it automatically generates 4 jobs (all combinations). How can I configure jEPlus to run only the specific pairs above (2 jobs in total) without generating all combinations?

The easiest way to do this is using the following syntax, using combinations, in Search Tag:

@@heatingsetpoint@@|@@coolingsetpoint@@

And then configure the variables values like this:

{18|22, 19|23}

There are other ways to achieve this like using a list of cases with only the desired combinations, or for more complex cases even a python, ruby, etc. script. You will find more information in the jEPlus wiki:
