> Hi all,<br />
><br />
> We have a LEED project in the center of Berlin for which I need to <br />
> perform a LEED Compliance analysis (LEED V3.0). We have chosen to use <br />
> eQUEST 3.64 as it can generate automatically the reference building <br />
> (baseline). I have read the eQUEST introductory tutorial as well as <br />
> the LEED tutorial.<br />
><br />
> I have built my building model (7 storey-building + 2 basement <br />
> floors, compact shape and quite simple layout) using the SD wizard <br />
> than the DD wizard and finally twicking my HVAC inputs in the <br />
> detailed mode. I have managed to run a simulation after correcting my <br />
> BDL errors, however I cannot run a LEED Compliance analysis (generate <br />
> baseline building), since it fails in the pre-check stages.<br />
><br />
> The reason is I have not entered a longitude and latitude for <br />
> Berlin! I have desperately tried to enter one but the input cell <br />
> won't let me (the cells are colored in white but when I type a figure <br />
> there, the software doesn't hold the value down...same for the <br />
> altitude of the site). I have managed to enter the time zone though <br />
> (-1).<br />
><br />
> Latitude for Berlin is 52.47 N, and latitude is 13.4 E therefore the <br />
> input should be +52.47 and -13.4?<br />
><br />
> I have generated a Berlin weather file using an Energy plus weather <br />
> file and converting it. <<ScreenShot019.jpg>> <<DEU_Berlin_IWEC.BIN>><br />
><br />
> I attach a screenshot of the error message as well as my weather <br />
> file. Maybe I am making a basic mistake and someone could point me <br />
> rapidly in the right direction?<br />
><br />
> I would appreciate any help!<br />
><br />
> Kind regards,<br />
