[TRNSYS-users] error with TESS TYPE568-1, bug in the code?

[Philip Horn]

Hi everyone,

I found a problem with TYPE568-1:

This type requires 16 inputs for mode 3:

    ElseIf (mode_eff == 3) Then
       Call SetNumberofInputs(10)
       Call SetInputUnits(16,'DM1')
    EndIf

However, only 10 are specified in the proforma!

So I get this error
"    TRNSYS Message    142 : The subroutine has attempted to set the units for the reported input number, which is beyond the number of inputs specified for the Type.
    Reported information  : Input # 16 Set to Type: DM1"


I think the 16 should be a 10 in the code (Call SetInputUnits(16,'DM1') ) , right?

How can I change this and bring it into the TRNDLL, as it is a TESS type?
I found the TESS dlls, but I got no idea how I could open and rebuild them.
I can import it as a user component, but there must be a way to recompile the TESS DLL... ?

Could anyone please confirm that the source code is incorrect, or if it's not the case, provide the solution :) ?

Best,
Philip
