<div>I'm not sure if it is a 3.64 issue or not, but I was able to represent a VRV (PVVT) system using version 3.63b and I followed the power point example for the most part.</div>
<div> </div>
<div>It might not be a bad idea to try version 3.63b if you have the time. Since my experience with this first VRV system model, I have not had another VRV project that would allow me to try and model them in 3.64 version.</div>

<div>Good luck, keep us posted on what you uncover...</div>
