Hello,

I am using EnergyPlus 9.5 and Python EMS 0.2.

I am having a problem where if I have a meter set at a reporting frequency beyond my simulation timestep, say hourly or daily etc., whenever I read the meter during runtime with EMS I am only getting the current timestep's sum for that meter, not the reporting period accumulation.

This was discovered because I have a solar energy generation output variable and hourly meter at 10 min timesteps, and they both return the same timestep data during runtime. Even though, the meter data still outputs hourly cumulative results as expected once the simulation is complete.

Any help with this would be appreciated, thanks!
