Ali El-Nashar,<br>
If you are using the most recent TRNSYS release (17.02.0004) then
you will find Type155 DLLs for other versions of Matlab located in:<br>
<br>
..\Trnsys17\Exe\DLLs\*.zip<br>
<br>
Extract the files from the *.zip file corresponding to your version
of Matlab and place them into the ..\trnsys17\Exe directory. You can
either move or replace the existing files.<br>
<br>
If you do not have the most recent release, it would probably be
best to contact your distributor and obtain it.<br>
<br>
Please be aware that the link between TRNSYS and Matlab only works
with the 32-bit version of Matlab and that you need to make sure
that you and the SYSTEM user both have full control level access to
the computer.<br>
kind regards,<br>
David<br>

I am trying to make a connection between TRNSYS 17 and
MATLAB (version R2014a). When running the decks of the
two “Calling Matlab” examples, I get this error message :
unable to start the MATLAB engine. The version of MATLAB
that I’m using apparently does not match Type155.dll
installed in my computer. I’m looking for a copy of an
updated version of Type155.dll that I can use. Could
someone help me ?<br>
<br>
Best regards</font><br>
