[TRNSYS-users] TRNSYS 3D import in Simulation Studio fails

[David BRADLEY via TRNSYS-users]

Arnaud,

  Try opening TRNBuild and selecting "Import Trnsys3D..." from the 
"file" menu. You should then be able to save the imported *.idf as a 
*.b18 (or *.b17) file depending on which version of TRNSYS you are using.

  The "no outputs specified" error usually happens if you try to link a 
Type56 proforma to a *.b18 (or *.b17) file that doesn't exist.

kind regards,

  David
