EMS Sensor Output Variable invalid name

I am trying to model a switchable glazing that is responsive to external environmental changes, specifically to the changes in solar irradiance levels. I am getting this error:

* Severe * Invalid Output:Variable or Output:Meter Name =SURFACE OUTSIDE FACE INCIDENT SOLAR RADIATION RATE PER A * ~~~ * Entered in EnergyManagementSystem:Sensor=WIN_2_SOLARIRRAD * ~~~ * Output:Variable Name not found

My object is as this:

EnergyManagementSystem:Sensor, Win_1_SolarIrrad, !- Name Block1:Zone1:Wall_1_Window_1, !- Output:Variable or Output:Meter Index Key Name Surface Outside Face Incident Solar Radiation Rate per Area; !- Output:Variable or Output:Meter Name

Could you help me sorting the output variable name?
