Weather files in eQUEST 3.63

1 post / 0 new

Dear all,

I am trying to model a high rise building in Kuala Lumpur, Malaysia with eQUEST 3.63.
I have some problem with weather file location in the schematic design wizard. I have tried two ways, both not working.

1. I have downloaded the weather file (bin file K-LUMPUR) from DOE2 web site and placed it under the folder- C:\Documents and Settings\All Users\Shared Documents\eQUEST 3-63 Data\Weather

The error message is "Weather file must recide under DOE2 weather file directory
C:\Documents and Settings\All Users\Documents\eQUEST 3-63 Data\Weather"

I am not sure whether it is due to the difference in the name of the directory- the one that is available is 'Shared Documents' and the one that the program looking for is 'Documents'.

2. I have tried to simulate the building and chose 'install via internet' and set the URL as "http://doe2.com/Download/Weather/NON-US/" The error message is:
"Failed to receive a valid HTTP response from the server"

When I tried to use version 3.61 it seems to work, but the location of the folder in this case is: C:\Program Files\eQUEST 3-61\Weather

Any input will be appreciated.
