<P>I still cannot do the metering without getting error messages. Attached is the project (case study for the website <A href="http://bepan.info/">http://bepan.info/</A> ) description and eQ .inp & .pd2 files. I want to meter EACH</P>
<P>(1) pumping station (CHW, HW & DHW)</P>
<P>(2) plant equipment (Chillers, Boilers, DHW-heater)</P>
<P>(3) system serving floors for Mechanical, UG-parking, Lobby, Retail, Htl-Functions, Htl-Rooms, Restaurant.</P>
<P>The project objective is to compare alternative systems (4P-FCU, WSHP, PTAC, ) for the hotel rooms. Metering examples in the DOE22 manuals are of no help compared to the DOE21E Supplement. I will making it work in DOE21E first</P>

<P></P>> you can sub-meter each shell. just be careful on how many meters <BR>> you <BR>> apply to a model though. 25 meter limit max. you can make more <BR>> but the <BR>> energy & $ applied to meters in excess of the 25 limit won't <BR>> report. <BR>> typically i just create these in detailed mode by copying & <BR>> pasting in <BR>> from my own set of masters. though i should note i do use the <BR>> wizard to <BR>> create the external lighting power meter so the schedule is <BR>> already <BR>> setup when i transition to detailed mode. then i assign the <BR>> external <BR>> power schedules to the meters i create for external power. <BR>> <BR>> look in the DOE22Vol1-Basics.pdf file you can download from the <BR>> same <BR>> site as equest. page 164 has an example that won't cut & paste <BR>> here <BR>> properly so here's one i've used before. <BR>> <BR>
