Type 158 is a derivative work from Type 534 so they should give nearly 
identical results when driven with the same inputs and parameters.  Did 
you compare the outputs to see where the problem may be?  Check the 
losses, stored energy term, delivered energy, etc.  That should point 
you to the problem.  If you still can't find it then I suggest you send 
it to your distributor for a quick check.
