[TRNSYS-users] 3d Trnsys import problem

Mohamed,

   I don't think that you need to have Trnsys3d on the second machine in 
order to process the *.idf. I would try the following:

1. open ..\Trnsys17\Building\TRNBuild.exe

2. select File: Import Trnsys3d file

3. specify the hemisphere and the location of the *.idf file.

4. click "import"

You may well get the same error. The reason I'm having you follow these 
steps is to remove the possibility that there is something in the Studio 
wizard that is causing the problem and (hopefully) narrow the problem down.

If you still get the error then I would guess that there is a difference 
in Trnsys version between the two computers and that the syntax of the 
*.idf written by Trnsys3d on the first computer doesn't match the syntax 
expected by TRNBuild on the second computer. If getting the two versions 
to match does not solve the problem then I would recommend sending the 
*.idf to your distributor for assistance.

kind regards,

  David
