<p class="MsoNormal"><span style="font-size:11.0pt;font-family:"Calibri","sans-serif";color:#1F497D">I am looking for some help in troubleshooting a VRF model I created by following the attached Mitsubishi documents.

<p class="MsoNormal"><span style="font-size:11.0pt;font-family:"Calibri","sans-serif";color:#1F497D"><o:p> </o:p></span></p>
<p class="MsoNormal"><span style="font-size:11.0pt;font-family:"Calibri","sans-serif";color:#1F497D">I followed all of the steps with no problems up to the point of selecting the VRF heating capacity curve. As soon as I selected VRF Heating Capacity Curve under
the Cap Curve/Waste Heat tab, the space heating kWh disappears (in addition to a massive negative utility bill for the month of January).<o:p></o:p></span></p>
<p class="MsoNormal"><span style="font-size:11.0pt;font-family:"Calibri","sans-serif";color:#1F497D"><o:p> </o:p></span></p>
<p class="MsoNormal"><span style="font-size:11.0pt;font-family:"Calibri","sans-serif";color:#1F497D">There is an additional twist – I was able to select the VRF Heating Capacity Curve for all basement zones and assign it without the model going bonkers, it
just goes off the rails when selecting this curve for any of the above grade zones. I have been combing through the model trying to figure out what is causing this but with no luck so far.<o:p></o:p></span></p>
