The PC actually stops working because after a few seconds the simulation starts the fan inside the PC all of a sudden stops and for the next 5-10 mins I cannot do anything, even alt+ctrl+canc. After I wait for that time i get the followig error:
the ReadMe says:

The thing is that if I raise the -aa parameter from 0.05 to 0.1 all works fine..
Is this only related to my PC then?? What should I do to solve this issue?
Thanks again for your help
Luigi…
I tell you what I had to do and how I did it.
I have the following situation. A urban context with a square plot 40m x 40m surrounded by buildings.
If I extrude the plot I get 4 surfaces and I need to calculate the minimum daily quantity of direct sunlight hours each test point receives in the period from 22nd of April to 22nd of August. For example for the test point at index 21 of surface with index 1 (I am just creating these numbers in my mind) the minimum is on 27th of April and the test point receive 8 hours (this is also invented for the sake of the example) of direct sunlight. All the other days it receives more. So the values I have to found are these minimums for all the test points. Now how to calculate these minimum quantities is a different issue of the topic of this post and actually I manage it.
Continuing with the explanation of what I had to... so I have only the initial plot that generate 4 surfaces, then I want to test smaller plots generated by an offset of 4 m of the original one, and the relative 4 surfaces for each smaller plot.
So in this case I think I cannot use your suggestion because the object don't exist yet.
I managed creating a loop with Anemone, the loop generate an offset starting from the original at 0 until 4 (then I multiply it by 4 to obtain the offset at 0, 4, 8, 12 and 16. Then I did like you also suggest I record every time the result with the DataRecorder and I create for each result a different branch with the index coming from the loop (0, 1, 2, 3 and 4) with the Flatten component.
In this image you can see all the surfaces saved in the same way as described above and in white the test points that receive minmum or equal than 2.5 hours per day of direct sunlight in the period from from 22nd of April to 22nd of August and in dark gray the test points that receive less.
The main point of this discussion is just the fact that instead use this tricky way I used, or the one you suggest, to analyze separately (because they shade each other) 20 geometries (in this case 20 they could be many more) it would be good if it would be possible just to input all the geometries at the same time and they would not shade each other so to get directly all the results with one run and in a more simple way.

b, then tried again, but I still have no luck. So what I did is I modeled the building again in Rhino and reduced the curves then I imported the geometry into GH and used the HoneyBee zone by surfaces component , but I noticed that after I grabbed the new components I get a "NULL" if I plug a panel to the final zone. Finally I decided to model a very simple box and grab all its surfaces to create a zone , and to my surprise I still get "NULL" Am I doing something wrong ? here are what I did to create this one zone box
1- modeled a 3d box in Rhino
2- Exploded it
3- In grasshopper I created HB-surfaces ( Floor, Ceiling, 4 individual walls and added I glazing by ratio to one of the walls)
Here is an image, also I attached the file, the box components are grouped with an orange background. Now I'm convinced that I have a bug or something because it can't get easier than creating a zone from a simple box and yet I get a "NULL" message.

Since I haven't had a chance to thoroughly test the Leonardo out just yet... I can tell that there are probably going to need to be a few minor changes (and potentially a few big changes). The minor changes will probably need to address the fact that a sketch doesn't 'reset' itself upon opening a serial port. This means that anything in the setup() function wont be initialized, and the serial communication might not work properly. It doesn't look like it's too hard to fix (just by adding a new while loop to check if the serial stream is open or not). But, this needs to be added to the Firmata. Some of the potentially bigger changes will deal with the fact that all 20 pins can be used for digital input and output. In addition, some of the digital pins can also be used for analog input (bringing the total analog inputs up to 12 using the Leonardo). This could potentially be really useful, especially if you could simply click on a pin in Grasshopper and tell it if you want it to be used as an analog or digital input. However, this opens up a lot of challenging tasks. Since the code would already be loaded onto the board, it would need to be able to respond to dynamic pin changes (which at the moment doesn't really happen, except for the different states for digital, PWM, and servo outputs... but in general those are all still outputs). I need to think a bit about the best way to approach this problem. Any suggestions would be greatly appreciated.
In general, I think the Leonardo can be used very similar to older boards. So, I think you could still use it with the current version of the Firmata... although I haven't had a chance to test it... and as I said, I may need to add a few lines of code just to get the serial connection established upon opening the port. I'll try to give this a look over the next week and provide some feedback. As always your input is appreciated.
Cheers,

and diffuse radiation for 365 days at noon (12:30)
As you can see there are some bumps that I have discarded as dependant of geometry (Did simulations with different geometries even with just an horizontal surface to analyse and nothing else.) Also discarded from the solar position since the bumps happen in different days as you may see in the graph. I have also tested it with Diva and honeybee so I guess it has to be with RADIANCE. I got this data reading the illuminance files from an annual daylight simulation.
I guess it has something to be with how RADIANCE transform radiation to luminance (luminance = (RED*.263 + GREEN*.655 + BLUE*.082) * 179) And how it determines the values Red, green and blue of the spectrum for a determined solar radiation. I guess, because I was unable to learn how RADIANCE calculates this spectrum, that it has to be dependant of the radiation and solar position with a quite large difference of spectrum.
Normally this bumps are hiden behing the variation of radiation over the year, and I guess that the tool was not designed to have such unrealistic constant radiation, but I would like to know why this happens.
Can anyone help? Any clue is welcome!
Thank you.
