[TRNSYS-users] type1238 alert sound - .wav file

[David BRADLEY]

Nick,
   You can get Type1238 to play a sound at the last time step by using 
the equation:

play = GE(TIME,STOP)

the variable play will be 1 if time is greater than or equal to the 
simulation stop time.

If you make sure that Type1238 is the last component in your input file 
(by moving it to the bottom of the component order list) then you'll get 
your sound played almost at the very end of the simulation - the only 
thing that TRNSYS will do after that is it's "cleanups" - calling the 
components one more time, final integrations, and printing. If you need 
the sound played really truly after the simulation completes then you 
might be better off running the simulation from a batch file and putting 
in a Windows system command to play your *.wav file following the 
command to run the simulation in the batch file.
Best,
  david
