Hi, I tried to define two variables in E+ idf files to change data with BCVTB using the External Interface class. But it resulted two severe errors.

The External Interface objects show as follows: ExternalInterface:Actuator, Space1-1AirTemperature, !- Name SPACE1-1 Ideal Loads Air System, !- Actuated Component Unique Name Ideal Loads Air System, !- Actuated Component Type Air Temperature, !- Actuated Component Control Type 25; !- Optional Initial Value

ExternalInterface:Actuator, Space1-1Humidity, !- Name SPACE1-1 Ideal Loads Air System, !- Actuated Component Unique Name Ideal Loads Air System, !- Actuated Component Type Air Humidity Ratio, !- Actuated Component Control Type 0.012; !- Optional Initial Value The variables defined in BCVTB: <variable source="Ptolemy"> <energyplus actuator="Space1-1AirTemperature"/> </variable> <variable source="Ptolemy"> <energyplus actuator="Space1-1Humidity"/> </variable>

Is there something wrong with my definition?
