1. It is not possible to have more than one instance of Type56 in
your project. However, if you define two zones in Type56 that have
no ADJACENT walls between then then in effect you have modeled two
buildings. This can be extended so that if you have two groups of
zones that have internal ADJACENT walls but no walls shared between
the two groups, you have in effect modeled two multizone buildings.<br>
<br>
2. Macro information is not saved at the *.dck level, only in the
Studio rendition of the project (the *.tpf). Connection line path
information and line properties (color, style, etc.) are also not
saved in the *.dck. These are both features that the developers have
considered adding but at the moment, I am not aware of any concrete
plans to do so.<br>
<br>
Kind regards,<br>

<p class="MsoNormal">Dear TRNSYS users,<o:p></o:p></p>
<p class="MsoNormal"><o:p> </o:p></p>
<p class="MsoNormal"><span lang="EN-US">I have two questions
about Type 56 and Studio :<o:p></o:p></span></p>
<p class="MsoNormal"><span lang="EN-US"><o:p> </o:p></span></p>
<p class="MsoNormal"><span lang="EN-US">1) When trying to add a
type 56 to a project which already contains one, the message
“The maximum number of instances(1) allowed for type 56 is
already reached!”. I would like to know if there is a way to
change the maximum number of instances of type 56 or not,
and in the latter case which is the reason. (Element of
context: Having more than one type 56 in a project would be
very useful for us when dealing with complex buildings with
many different zones without adjacencies. In this case, the
input and output list of type 56 can become very long and
not easy to manage when connecting type 56 to other types.)<o:p></o:p></span></p>
<p class="MsoNormal"><span lang="EN-US"><o:p> </o:p></span></p>
<p class="MsoNormal"><span lang="EN-US">2) We are planning to
make a wizard to create automatically dck files. We observed
that dck files can contain some graphical information for
Simulation Studio, as:<o:p></o:p></span></p>
<p class="MsoNormal"><span lang="EN-US"><o:p> </o:p></span></p>
<p class="MsoNormal">*$UNIT_NAME xxx<o:p></o:p></p>
<p class="MsoNormal"><span lang="EN-US">*$LAYER xxx<o:p></o:p></span></p>
<p class="MsoNormal"><span lang="EN-US">*$POSITION xpos ypos<o:p></o:p></span></p>
<p class="MsoNormal"><span lang="EN-US"><o:p> </o:p></span></p>
<p class="MsoNormal"><span lang="EN-US">However, in order to
create dck files readly usable in Simulation Studio, we
would like to specify macros. Does some special statement
like these ones exist in order to specify macros? If not,
has someone any experience or tips in creating wizards to
create input files (maybe directly tpf files?) for
Simulation Studio?<o:p></o:p></span></p>
<p class="MsoNormal"><span lang="EN-US"><o:p> </o:p></span></p>
<p class="MsoNormal"><span lang="EN-US">Thank you for your
answers.<o:p></o:p></span></p>
