should provide an example TRNSYS parametric project in the package; I will
do that in a couple of days. In the meantime, could you take a look at the E+
example? Just open the project in the example/ folder, and you will see how to
specify parameters. Unlike E+, the weather file in a TRNSYS model is
normal parameter. You just need to create a parameter and think of a search
string (e.g. "@@weather@@") to put in the place of the weather
file in the .DCK (or .TRD) file, and then specify the alt. values of the
parameter using syntax like "{weather1.txt, weather2.txt, ...}". </span></font><span

<br>
I just had a short look at it and did not find an option to vary sets of
values, e.g. if I vary a location I need to specify the name of the weather
data file, the latitude, shift in solar time and possibly some other values. If
there is this option and I did not see it, please ignore my comment.<br>
