s that setbacks are not possible to input using the thresholds component for that particular example because the OpenStudio apartment schedule doesn't have setbacks. I totally get this.
However, I get the same error for the office and classroom programs, and looking at the IDF file it's clear that both of these programs do have setbacks. In fact, I discovered this issue because I was trying to model a classroom with heating (<18 dC) but no cooling (>40 dC) and kept getting high cooling energy usage. The setback in the IDF file appears to default to 27 dC:
This probably explains why even though the max zone temp that is registering is 38 dC and my thermostat is set to 40 dC, I'm seeing a lot of cooling energy use. Is there a way of changing the setback through Honeybee?
…
otate 9°, the second module 18°, the third 27°, etc. I can only seem to get all 11 modules to rotate the same... I know it probably has something to do with series but I can't figure it out. the screen shot shows the 11 modules rotating to the same degree and the drawing is a plan of what I am trying to accomplish. Thank you so much in advance!…

ing. But in time I'll try to post something.
One more question: How can I control the reflectiveness of the mirror like Srf as it requires R-G-BReflectance (I guess that is RGB colors) if the glass reflects 27% of the light should I input 27 for all three. I try to understand the Radiance materials (www. artifice.com) but it does not say much. And what kind of sky should be used for the analysis recipe
Thank you
Cheers…
