The character combination *|( is recognized by TRNSED as the
syntax for beginning a group of checkboxes. In the case of Type340 I
guess that the proforma has a variable in it called (UA)s,a1.
TRNEdit (which interprets TRNSED syntax) is getting confused by the
open parenthesis character. It thinks a checkbox group is starting
and doesn't understand that the "(" is part of the variable in a
numerical value field.<br>
<br>
The way to fix the problem permanently is to edit the Type340
proforma and change the name of the parameter so that it does not
have a parenthesis as its first character, then right click on
Type340 in your project and select "replace" from the context menu.
Browse to find the location of the modified proforma and then
generate your TRNSED application again.<br>
<br>
A much simpler fix would be to simply change the TRNSED line to
read:<br>
<br>
<small><small><font face="Courier New, Courier, monospace">UASAHEAT=0
<br>
*|Heat loss capacity rate of the store through the first zone
(dz1) of the store mantle
|kJ/hr.K|kJ/hr.K|0|1|0|1000000.00000|1000
</font></small></small><br>
<br>
With this second fix, the problem would come back if you were to
ever generate another TRNSED application from a simulation that
includes Type340.<br>
<br>
Kind regards,<br>

TRNSYS users,
<br>
I am trying to make a TRNSED application.
<br>
My project includes the Type 340 - Multiport Store.
<br>
When I open the project.trd in TRNEDIT I receive an error message.
<br>
I made a simple project just with Type 340 and the message error
is "Error in line 103. Checkbox command expected."
<br>
I copy the line 103 to this e-mail.
<br>
<br>
UASAHEAT=0

<br>
Looking forward to ear from you to solve this problem.
<br>
Best regards,
