Hi, i have just downloaded BCVTB and currently trying out the example files provided to familiarize with the software. However, i could not even run the E+/simulink example provided. This is the file im trying to run: ePlus85Simulink-simple image description

I have Energyplus version 9.2.0, while the file im trying to run seems to be 8.5.0. Could this be the issue?

If you haven't adjusted the BCVTB' systemVariables-windows.properties in the BCVTB/bin so that the ENERGYPLUS_BIN entry points to the correct installation location of EnergyPlus 9.2.0, then this is most likely the problem.

Please note that you will also have to transition the example to version 9.2.0 as well. The systemVariables-windows.properties is the file that tells the BCVTB the EnergyPlus version that should be used to run the IDF file.
