While looking through the DOE-2 documentation, I found references to a method
of defining annual schedules without the need for day and week schedules. I
tried the following input:
"COOL SETPOINT" = SCHEDULE
TYPE = TEMPERATURE
THRU DEC 31 (ALL) (1,24) (74) ..
When importing into eQUEST I got this error message:
Line 1: Annual Schedule: COOL SETPOINT
Line 4: Error Encountered:
=
*****************************************************************************
*
EXPECTED THRU
Line 4: End
Does anyone know if this format is supported by eQUEST or what might be wrong
with the above? Or an easier way to set a constant setpoint temp for the
entire year. I'm trying to avoid creating a bunch of day, week, and annual
schedules to model the effect of temperature setpoints varying throughout the
building. Thanks!
