[TRNSYS-users] Time steps on Studio (deck) and Build

[David Bradley]

Carlos,
 You might want to refer to section 8.5 of the 08-Programmer's Guide 
manual for instructions on how to modify existing components and 
recompile them. For instructions on how to modify and create new 
proformas, you may refer to section 2.3 of the 02-Simulation Studio manual.
Kind regards,
 David
