[TRNSYS-users] problem with inputs in type 56

[David BRADLEY]

Ewen,
   400 inputs into a building can certainly get confusing but it is not 
a problem; I have had more than double that a few times.

   Unfortunately, without looking at your *.tpf and *.b17, it is hard to 
know the cause of the problem. In the Studio, with the link between the 
weather and your building open, you can click on the Type99 TAMB output 
and the Studio will highlight all of the variables to which it is 
connected in red. If that doesn't lead you to the problem, you may have 
an input name in TRNBuild that has been incorrectly applied to your 
shading ratio. Looking at the *.b17 file with a text editor and 
searching on input variable names might help. If you are still stuck, 
send the file to your distributor and they can have a look.

Best,
  David
