<P DIR=LTR><SPAN LANG="en-us"><FONT FACE="Calibri">I’m finding that the TRNSYS3D manual is unclear about how to link a Type 56 Building to the Type 125 Printer. I</FONT></SPAN><SPAN LANG="en-us"><FONT FACE="Calibri">’m trying to configure the printer according to the second approach, using ZONE names, but</FONT></SPAN><SPAN LANG="en-us"> <FONT FACE="Calibri">when I attempt to link Output-1 from the Building (TAIR_</FONT></SPAN><SPAN LANG="en-us"><FONT FACE="Calibri">ZONE1) to the Printer’s Input-1 field, I get this message:</FONT></SPAN></P>
<P DIR=LTR><SPAN LANG="en-us"><FONT FACE="Calibri">“Warning ! You have connected two variables with same dimension but different units ! Are you sure ?</FONT></SPAN><SPAN LANG="en-us"><FONT FACE="Calibri">”</FONT></SPAN></P>
