Revision history [back]

I can't seem to find where the error is. The error is fully displayed as shown below. Where do I have to look to address this error? The zone is called "Basement thermal zone" and the object is just called "duct". I'm also not sure what out of range and blank fields I have, since I didn't change that much to the HVAC system.

Thanks in advance.

EDIT: I tried several other things but I just can't work it out. I have a simple building with just 1 room and a crawling space. Both spaces have natural ventilation and the room also has an electric heater and airconditioner (only cooling). I'm not checked - most system input has not been read (see previous warning). *** Fatal error -- final processing. Program exited before simulations began.

For the airconditioning I used a VRF and set the rated heat capacity to 0. Now here comes the part what seems to keep go wrong. Both the room and crawling space have natural ventilation, but they are both separate ventilation holes. The two spaces are also different thermal zones. How can I insert this? I use OpenStudio 2.3 for Windows.
