How to fix these error: "Gross Rated Total Cooling Capacity [W] will be limited by the maximum rated volume flow per rated total capacity ratio"

In all the Cooling Coils of the Variable Refrigerant Flow System is happening the same error:

* Warning * SizeDXCoil Coil:Cooling:DX:VariableRefrigerantFlow TU7 VRF DX COOLING COIL * ~~~ * ...Gross Rated Total Cooling Capacity [W] will be limited by the maximum rated volume flow per rated total capacity ratio. * ~~~ * ...DX coil volume flow rate ( m3/s ) = 2.347873 * ~~~ * ...Requested capacity ( W ) = 15364.597 * ~~~ * ...Requested flow/capacity ratio ( m3/s/W ) = 1.528E-004 * ~~~ * ...Maximum flow/capacity ratio ( m3/s/W ) = 6.041E-005 * ~~~ * ...Adjusted capacity ( W ) = 38865.635

And as you can see, automatically for to adjust the ratio, the capacity of the coils are almost triplicating.
