[TRNSYS-users] TRNSYS - External data file type 107 - Help required

[Atta Ullah Sanai]

Dear Matt,
               Thanks for your response. I am still confused. Do I have to
make the external file by manually editing the example external file
available as per my requirements? How can I have the required output values
for the external file by using my own input values if I am able to find
them from a manufacturer. In short, how can you generate an external file?
Kindly help me out. Thanks

Regards,
Atta Ullah Sanai
