<p class="MsoNormal">I tried converting a CWEC file of the old generation. The resulting .epw file, first line:<o:p></o:p></p>

<p class="MsoNormal">I suggest using the new CWEC generation .epw file unless there is a stipulation that the original file must be used. Many of the CWEC files have both generations included on the Climate One Building website:<o:p></o:p></p>

<p class="MsoNormal"><span style="font-size:8.0pt;font-family:"Courier New""><o:p> </o:p></span></p>
<p class="MsoNormal">Alternately, you could try editing that first line in the .epw file to show the same information as the new generation .epw file includes.<o:p></o:p></p>
<p class="MsoNormal"><o:p> </o:p></p>
<p class="MsoNormal">Converting from .epw to .bin always goes smoothly. The old CWEC files do not some of the information required for the .epw file.<o:p></o:p></p>
<p class="MsoNormal"><o:p> </o:p></p>
<p class="MsoNormal">The old CWEC files use very old data unrepresentative of current climate conditions.
