[TRNSYS-users] problems with Data Reader Type 9

[Diego A. Arias]

Hi Rémi,

If you click on the explanation of parameter 4 you will read: "the data 
time interval must be an integer multiplier of the simulation timestep. 
E.g., if the simulation time step is 15 minutes, the data time interval 
could be 15min, 30min, 1h, etc."
Please let me know if this helps. If this does not solves your problem, 
please feel free to send me the data file and I will be glad to take a 
look at it.
Best regards,

Diego

For example, my goal is to use a Time interval of data of 60 minutes, with a 5 minute time step.  The smallest time step I can use without getting a range check error is 9 minutes.
