[Equest-users] Primary/Secondary Loop Flow Reporting PV-A

eQuesters,
I'm modeling a Primary/Secondary 2-pipe system in equest and am having issues with the PV-A report. The report shows the capacity and flow of my Primary loop as the sum of the capacities of all the attached equipment (boilers and chillers). I believe this is the correct way to report it.
The report, however, shows my Secondary loop capacity and flow as the sum of the capacities and flows of all the coils attached to that loop. This results in massive capacity and flows for that loop. The flow is about quadruple what my pumps are sized for, and I'm concerned that the LEED reviewer will flag this as an issue.

Is there a way to show the Secondary loop as the sum of the COINCIDENT loads on that loop? I have selected "PRIMARY" under the sizing option for that loop, but it still reports the sum of all the attached coils. I'm at a loss here and hoping that someone can help me out with this issue. I have attached my inp and pd2 files. Thanks in advance
