[TRNSYS-users] Creating New Component

[Aaron J. Danenberg]

Lesh,,

 

What do you mean when you say the component is empty?  When you started the
component did you use the wizard to create the .tmf and export the Fortran
Template (this is the easiest way to start a component).  If not, make sure
the tmf file in the performas folder is associated with the type and you
have correctly entered all of the inputs, outputs, and parameters that
correspond to the .dll you are using.

Subject: [TRNSYS-users] Creating New Component

 

Hi, 

 

I'm creating a new component in IVF 11.1 for TRNSYS 17, using the
IVF11.1.sln provided in the installation package of TRNSYS 17. I am able to
create the Type210.dll file, and export it to ..\Userlib\ReleaseDll. The
proforma is created in the 'proforma' folder.

 

My problem is that I'm able to access the Type210.tmf directly from the
TRNSYS tree in the simulation window, but the component is empty. I've tried
the same thing with various source codes (of already existing TRNSYS
component), but obtained the same results. 

 

I believe that TRNSYS is finding the type because the list file said:

Reported Information : 1 user DLL was loaded after searching in
"C:\TRNSYS17\UserLib\ReleaseDLLs".

 

However the component is empty in the simulation window.

 

Can somebody please tell me what might be wrong with my doing.

Lesh
