Has anyone had success with using HECDSS to read in EXTRAN columnar output data (conduit V and Q data), using the Exchange Format and Exchange Variable commands (EF and EV)? I would like to know if these are known to be buggy; I am getting crazy results. Here is the batch run file I am using:
* READ1 - INPUT MACRO FOR SWMM DATA FROM EXTRAN PRINTOT
TI 01JAN99 0010
EV AAB1=/SOL-MIL/CSA04/FLOW/01JAN99/10MIN/MILRAAAB/ UNITS=CFS
TYPE=INST-VAL
EF.H SKIP: 8
EF [TIME:HH:MM:SS] [SKIP:5] [AAB1]
IM MILRAAAB.HG
ED
The object is to import the 5th column of data (flow); it does that for five values, then drops back one column (velocity for previous skipped column) to get the value for the 60 minute point; then it correctly grabs the next five values from the 5th column. It repeats this pattern for the full data set of 144 values.
Any suggestions would be greatly appreciated.
