Weather Convertor and Perez Model not working

Hi everybody,

I have meteorological data for a .epw file. I have the dry bulb temperature, relative humidity, atmospheric pressure, global solar radiation, wind direction, wind speed and total cloud cover.
When I try to use the weather converter (I convert .epw to .epw), it does calculated the horizontal infrared radiation (and delete my values for cloud cover), however it does not fill the direct and diffuse solar radiation (does not use the Perez model) I have tried adding a .def file, but it does not change anything, thought I am not sure that I use it correctly as my case is not in the examples of the AuxiliaryPrograms Documentation.

Any help on that matter would be highly appreciated. Thanks!
