One implied detail in Joe's description is setting up a dummy space and assigning it to the dummy zone.<div><br><div><br><br><div class="gmail_quote">On Thu, Apr 14, 2011 at 9:03 AM, Joe Fleming <span dir="ltr"><<a href="mailto:joe@thespinnakergroupinc.com">joe@thespinnakergroupinc.com</a>></span> wrote:<br>

<p class="MsoNormal"><span style="font-size:11.0pt;color:#1F497D">Typically, you need to create a “dummy space” and assign it to a “dummy zone” then assign your first system to this zone. If you already created systems you can always open your .inp file and cut and paste the DOAS to the top of the systems list so that it will become your first system. Go ahead and assign all of the outside air to your DOAS “dummy zone” and then choose outside air from system for all of the systems that this DOAS serves. It will only be able to find OA from systems above it on the component tree, so make sure your DOAS is at the top.</span></p>
