[Equest-users] Help needed regarding results.

[Thulasi Ram via Equest-users]

Hi,
Did you turn on the "daylighting controls" so that the model considers
daylighting in calculating the lighting load? If you turn on the
"Daylighting controls" (Wizard Screen 1/41)  , only then eQuest will model
the daylighting savings. WWR can be set only in the wizard mode. I believe
it requires little advanced knowledge to implement parametric runs for WWR
in eQuest detailed mode.
