Jeplus is not reporting the reporting variable illuminance, from "Illuminance Level OccupantHours" in the html file. Other RVX parameters such as cooling energy and comfort is getting reported (please find the attached image screenshotimage description). I made sure that there is no spelling or spacing problem in the RVX parameters. Is there any particular edit i have to do in IDF file, apart from the output table style; CommaAndHTML.! image description

Thanks for sharing the project files! It is an issue with column headers. In the CSV file, it is as such:

,,A Bit Dark (<= 100 lux) [hr],Dim (> 100, <= 300 lux) [hr],Adequate (> 300, <= 500 lux) [hr],Bright (>500 lux) [hr]

The commas within the column headers are interpreted as separators by jEPlus. I need to think about how to handle this. In the meantime, a way to get around it is by shifting the headers as jEPlus reads it, i.e. to assign "<= 300 lux) [hr]" to the column's field in RVX, instead of "Adequate (> 300, <= 500 lux) [hr]".

@Yi Zhang, This hack reports a number, but its not the actual value that's in the HTML files (and the reported number is the same for all the jobs). There is still some problem with collecting the illuminance values.

Also, the numbers that've been reported for cooling load/ comfort rvx parameters are also different when I check with the respective HTML file for that particular job. I am not sure how Jeplus is getting these random numbers. You can find the files here. https://drive.google.com/drive/folder... Please help me to find the bug. Thanks

@Yi Zhang, For now, I have found a solution using Python code, to collect the values from eplustbl files manually looping through all folders. But please do find a solution for this.

Can you share the HTML file? Or also the .CSV

Is it the space between Occupied and Hours in the field "From table"?

Hi, please find the files in this folder. https://drive.google.com/drive/folder... . The space is there in the HTML file too.

By inspecting the element, it seems that the the report does have one space in front of "Annual", take a look at the screenshot: https://i.imgur.com/13ayndR.png

Does it work now?

Be sure to uncheck the simulation so it just gathers the .csv again without running all simulations again

@adrinsnnt , No its still not collecting the visual resilience value. I tried with a 'space' in front.

Inspect element in others like "Entire Facility" it also seems to have a space with this. Maybe check the .csv instead of the .html to confirm this is the issue

I checked for all the typo issues. Nothing works out. All other tables are working. The problem arises just with this visual resilience table. Is it a problem with symbols (<, >) etc. Which is part of the table column header. ?
