error reading shading file - baseline

Post by anderG »

Hi,
I am using the most updated ASHRAE 90.1 App.G - PRM navigator. When running the PRM simulations, the Proposed model is being simulated without any problems, but the Baseline model's simulation does not start because there is an "error reading shading file" (even when I untick the SunCast link!). As the Baseline simulations are run automatically I have no idea what can go wrong.
Thanks,
annao

Hi annao.

In the PRM navigator under 'Preliminary Data Setup' can you redo the 'Select ASHRAE standard' step and try running your simulation again.
We had another user with the same issue and the above fixed it for them.
I hope it helps.
