Hi,

I am looking to pass a user defined value of "Reference Temperature" for the calculation of the convection load in the zonal energy balance equation given on page-25(bottom)of the manual. https://energyplus.net/sites/all/modules/custom/nrel_custom/pdfs/pdfs_v8.5.0/EngineeringReference.pdf

I am aware of creating the ExternalInterface:Schedule object in the idf but how can I use this object in idf file to specify the new user input reference temperature?
Am I approaching correctly to what I want to achieve or is there any other way.I hope I am clear with my question.Any advice from the community will be really helpful. Thanks in advance.

Regards
