eQuest outdoor air shows 0 CFM in Hourly Reports, but it's not 0 in model

For #1 (see image below, blue #1), it shows 0 hot air flow. and #4 shows 0 outdoor air. But, it must be receiving hot air flow because the space is at the right temperature (even with 0 baseboard, space temp was good). And, I'm pretty sure it is getting outdoor air, because when I increase outdoor air, my total building energy use goes up. Any idea why it is showing "0" for these items? Did I set something up wrong in Hourly Reports? FYI the date I'm showing below is January 7th when it is about 20F outside (-5 C), so it is heating season.
