Hi German,<br>
<br>
Yes, gendaymtx is in the HEAD, the installers in the NREL site are
based on the HEAD as of Thursday of last week, I believe. And no,
the GPU dctimestep is not needed for this to work (nor is that
version of dctimestep in HEAD). Nope, gendaymtx works with all the
standard Radiance tools. You simply need a weather file formatted
the way it wants, which is the same format as a DAYSIM weather
file. Andy McNeil notes that DAYSIM has a tool to convert the
EnergyPlus weather file format (.epw) to the DAYSIM format.
OpenStudio will be modified to automatically provide gendaymtx with
the epw data in the format it expects. I noticed that gendaymtx
also accepts weather data from STDIN, and that there is an option
to feed it less than a full year (8760) of data. We will leverage
this ability in OpenStudio for sure, as well.<br>
<br>
Exciting times!<br>
<br>

folks,<br>
<br>
Just a quick note to let you all know that the Radiance installers
have been updated, and are available for download at the NREL
OpenStudio site. These packages include the brand new 'gendaymtx'
utility that greatly speeds up the annual calculation when using
the daylight coefficient tools in Radiance.<br>
<br>
We hope to add gendaymtx into the OpenStudio tool chain and
workflow in the coming weeks, but in the meantime, I'm sure Greg
would appreciate any feedback from users willing to try it out on
their own, especially those Windows users out there. There's a man
page explaining its use, and it's pretty straightforward.<br>
<br>
Grab yours here:<br>
