Error in using EnergyPlus FMU

I opened an issue on GitHub for the EnergyPlusToFMU project. The situation is as follows: I attempted to generate an FMU for the _fmu_export_schedule example included in the latest version of EnergyPlusToFMU. After importing the FMU into Simulink and running it, an error occurred.

** Severe ** ExternalInterface: Error, xml file "variables.cfg" declares variable "FMU_OTHEQU_ZONEONE", ** ~~~ ** but variable was not found in idf file. ** Fatal ** Error in ExternalInterface: Check EnergyPlus *.err file.
