How to use BEopt idf output in E+?

edit

Hello, I would like to use the E+ idf file generated by BEopt to run simulations directly in E+. However, even after updating the IDF file to the most current version, E+ comes up with >40 errors trying to simulate it. How can I use the BEopt output file in E+ without the errors? -Stepp

There are a multiple errors with format: * Warning * Meter:Custom="HEATING:GAS_1", no items assigned * ~~~ * ...will not be shown with the Meter results. This may be caused by a Meter:Custom be assigned to another Meter:Custom.

There are also multiple errors with format: * Warning * Output:Meter: invalid Key Name="HEATING:ELECTRICITY_1" - not found.

There is a fatal error: * Fatal * UpdateMeterReporting: Previous Meter Specification errors cause program termination. ...Summary of Errors that led to program termination: .....
