Hi all,
I have a surface error as follows:
*** 19088 , !- Zone Name * Severe * IP: IDF line~19088 Error detected in Object=BUILDINGSURFACE:DETAILED, name=SURFACE 130 * ~~~ * Field [Zone Name] is required but was blank * Warning * IP: Note -- Some missing fields have been filled with defaults. See the audit output file for details. * Severe * IP: Blank "required" fields found in input * Severe * IP: Out of "range" values and/or blank required fields found in input * Fatal * IP: Errors occurred on processing IDF file. Preceding condition(s) cause termination. ...Summary of Errors that led to program termination: ..... Reference severe error count=3
I am not able to edit this one out in Sketchup and it does not appear in the OpenStudio editor...Once I open the out.idf file in the IDF editor I can find the surface (130) with its missing zone cell highlited and change it. This works fine however, I'm just beginning to use these programs and need to size a plant off of the loads. I really need to use I-P units for my calcs.
Another issue and this may belong under another heading; I can import the fixed idf into OS but my constructions and spaces are gone... I can fix the spaces but the constructions are timely to build and I really need to be able to "move" them in and out of different files. To date I have had zero success moving the constructions in and out of different project files, I expect the BCL can be used for this but I haven't found any guides or tutorials on exactly how to achieve this..
Any help and or guidance will be appreciated.
Thanks,
Dustin
