<div class="gmail_quote"><br>Dear Mr. Duffy,<br><br> Thanks for your reply!<br><br>To 1): Do you have some advices for these questions? How could I run this Trnsys 15's *.tpf program by Trnsys 17? Or other way to run it? Since it's very important for me.<br>
<br>To 2): You can open the *.bui ? Really? But once I open its *.bui file, it showed the ERROR. Please see the Attached.<br>Why I can't open this *.bui file( the 3rd and 4th attached)? You can?<br><br>Many thanks!<br>

<br><br>Dear Wang,<br><br>1. The blue lines are indeed the undefined connections. The reasons for this is that sometimes as components age through different versions, the inputs of the components are changed or modified.<br>
<br>2. I was able to open the *.bui (NOT the *.bld) without any problems.<br><br>Best regards,<br><br>Matt Duffy<br><br><br>

<div class="gmail_quote">Dear Mr. Bradley,<br><br> Many thanks! You're right. But when I open the TRNSYS 15's *.tpf file using TRNSYS 17 studio, so many former informations lost, the links' color became BLUE, please see the ATTACHED.<br>
<br> What's more, the TRNBUILD cann't open the former TRNSYS 15's *.bui file directly. It said, "cannot open BUI-File:(c:\trnsys 15\usr\Iwobay.bld)". Please see the 2nd ATTACHED. Please give me some advices to open them completely and keep all the former contents in detail using the TRNSYS 15/prebid/iisibat! I'm very eager to use those former programs.<br>
<br> My support said to me, try to adapt the syntax in the .dec file to TRNSYS 17, but I tried, it still goes blank. Please see the 3rd ATTACHED. How to adapt the syntax in the .dec file to TRNSYS 17?<br><br> Thanks a lot!<br>

<div bgcolor="#ffffff" text="#000000">Wang,<br> I just tried and it looks as though File: Open works as expected. The Trnsys17 Studio is used for opening *.tpf files; it will make its best attempt at automatically updating certain simulation parameters that changed between Trnsys15 and Trnsys16. TRNBuild is used for opening *.bui files; it will ask you to redefine your window data as window data was stored in an external file and not in the *.bui itself with Trnsys15.<br>

<div bgcolor="#ffffff" text="#000000">Stefan,<br> Type93 simply holds onto a value for as many time steps as you ask it to, then "releases" the value. The control ought to work the same regardless of the system size. I am not sure what you mean by "continuous" controllers. If you mean that there are some controllers that continuously modify a flow rate in order to maintain an outlet temperature then a simple time delay might cause some problems. You might look at some of the controllers available in the TESS Controllers Library (for Trnsys17) as there are a number of devices in there with minimum run times and start-delays.<br>

<p class="MsoNormal"><font size="2" face="Calibri"><span style="FONT-SIZE: 11pt" lang="EN-US">I am working with the latest version of the TRNSYS 3d plugin on windows XP and using the trnsys 17.00019 version of the simulation Studio.</span></font></p>

<p class="MsoNormal"><font size="2" face="Calibri"><span style="FONT-SIZE: 11pt" lang="EN-US">I already have sketched my building and defined the zones in it, as described on the manual. </span></font></p>
<p class="MsoNormal"><font size="2" face="Calibri"><span style="FONT-SIZE: 11pt" lang="EN-US">The most common problems I have met so far have to do with some error messages when I try to use the skp file. However I read Mr. ‘s Duffy note that we should only use the idf file, and therefore I did not worry.</span></font></p>

<p class="MsoNormal"><font size="2" face="Calibri"><span style="FONT-SIZE: 11pt" lang="EN-US">My main problem begun when I started drawing the shadow objects that affect my building. I did defined the objects as noted on the tutorial (version June 2010) and on the Outliner Window I could see two Shading Object groups, (one for the nearby building that affect mine and one for a second construction that is attached to my building) Please see attached skp file.</span></font></p>

<p class="MsoNormal"><font size="2" face="Calibri"><span style="FONT-SIZE: 11pt" lang="EN-US">When I saved and reopen the idf file, Outiner window showed 17 shading objects (!) see attached idf file. Even though I believe that it automatically created one object per surface, it is important to know</span></font></p>
