<DIV>Hi Jeff and David,</DIV>
<DIV> </DIV>
<DIV><FONT face="Times New Roman">Thanks for the advice. But the variable name
is from the components’ parameter, I don’t think I can change it. Unfortunately,
I still can't locate the fatal error since there is no equation named OF. And I
found it acts very weird, because sometime it can run the calculation in TRNED
and no error comes up, and sometime this error comes up, especially after I
linked the required data files under the same directory.It's kinda random, I
have no clue how to solve this problem. So I turn to you for more helps. Please
check the attached .trd file and let me know if you need more data file. Thanks
very much.</FONT></DIV>

used an illegal variable name. Equation names cannot start with CON (nor
EQU, SIM, etc.). The TRNSYS processor looks at the first three letters of
any line for key words and CON is the the beginning of CONstants. So your
variable named CONTROL is thereby illegal. <BR><BR>On another note, always
look for the first error in the list file and not the last error when
debugging...<BR><BR>Jeff<BR><BR><BR>Jeff Thornton <BR>President - TESS, LLC

<DIV>Hi TRNSYS users,</DIV>
<DIV> </DIV>
<DIV>I met a problem when I tried to create a demo using TRNED. I cannot
create the distributable and the error shown as below:</DIV>
<DIV> </DIV>
<DIV>*** Fatal Error at time
:
0.000000<BR> Generated by Unit :
Not applicable or not available<BR> Generated by
Type : Not applicable or not
available<BR> TRNSYS Message 13
: The TRNSYS Processor has reported an error while trying to process
EQUATIONS. The reported error was that an equal sign (=) did not follow
the variable name. One common cause of this error is to have fewer
equations that that specified in the EQUATIONS card. Please check the
input file and re-run the simulation<BR> Reported
information : OF</DIV>
<DIV> </DIV>
<DIV>I tried to locate the error but failed. I wonder if anyone has such
problem before and please kindly give me some advice. Please check the
attached LST file and let me know if more detailed information is
need.</DIV>
<DIV> </DIV>
<DIV>Thanks very much in advance.</DIV>
<DIV> </DIV>
<DIV>Regards,</DIV>
