You are correct that something in your type specification isn't being
understood by the TRNSYS kernel. It might have to do with the proforma
(*.tmf file) or it might have to do with the compiled code behind the
tmf file. I would recommend that you look at the actual *.lst file that
is being produced by your simulation and see if you can determine the
cause of the syntax problem. If not, I would recommend that you contact
your distributor for assistance.<br>
