    Michal,<br>
      This sounds like a bug that we have found and fixed in Trnsys17.
    We are in the final testing stages of the fix; could you please send
    me the project and the data file so that I can have a look?<br>
    <br>
      A couple of hints (although I do not think that these will solve
    the problem...): <br>
    - make sure that you set the "start day" parameter of Type16
    correctly (it should be 152 for June 1).<br>
    - make sure that you set the simulation start time to 3624.<br>
    - your first method of specifying the timestep is the correct one.
    Set the simulation time step to a STRING variable called TIMESTEP
    and define the equation that you wrote below:<br>
    <br>
    EQUATIONS 1<br>
    TIMESTEP = 1/6<br>
    <br>
    Best,<br>
