<p class=MsoNormal><font size=2 color=navy face=Tahoma><span style='font-size:
10.0pt;font-family:Tahoma;color:navy'>In eQUEST, green inputs are default
values, red are user entered values and pink have user expressions defining
them. User expressions are very useful – sort of like putting
formulas into a spreadsheet cell. For example, I usually enter chiller
EIR as 1/6.7 (where 6.7 would be the peak chiller COP). You can go one
further and define global variables and then use the global variables in the
user expressions.</span></font></p>

– that is, the element (zone in this case) is linked to another and is
getting its values from that other zone. I would suggest looking at the
.inp text file to determine which zone this zone is linked to.</span></font></p>
