I've seen models that have both EnergyPlus modules and apart from that, has a PythonActor module to interface (send and receive data, etc).

The PythonActor starts by receiving data first. ( using self.input.get() [so some data from E+ is passed onto the pythonActor, I presume] )

Can someone please explain, at a very detailed and microscopic level, as to what happens when I click the "Run" button on the model (and henceforth). {basic skeletal model is shown in the picture}

I suggest to look at

http://ptolemy.eecs.berkeley.edu/ptol... and search for the Class PythonScript. You can also find some details about the SDF director. Aditional information about the SDF director can also be found https://ptolemy.eecs.berkeley.edu/boo...

If you want to know the details about the Simulator Actor I suggest to read http://www.tandfonline.com/doi/abs/10... which is also available as technical report http://simulationresearch.lbl.gov/wet...
