Using Simulator DataSource: CSV Direct for my own load profile

Hello ;

I am trying to simulate my own profile, so i did the following:

  1. I saved the files as CSV file and paste it in the folder: openems\io.openems.edge.simulator\bin\io\openems\edge\simulator\datasource\csv\direct

  2. I followed the steps in [Getting Started] but I just used CSV Direct instead of CSV Predefined

  3. in the “Source” field of “CSV Direct” I wrote the file name.CSV

Then I got nothing !

Could you please advise if there is any recommendations to overcome this issue?

Thanks

Hi Amro,

The Simulator DataSource: CSV Direct does not take the path to CSV file, but rather expects the content of the CSV file directly in its configuration. So you should just be able to copy the content of your CSV file into the source configuration parameter:

Thanks Stefan, I got it …

However, I tried to use my data but I got error in the Controller Balancing Symmetric “Fault Running the Controller failed”… But when I copied and pasted the data in the “standard load profile” it is worked well !

Is there any specific pattern/ characteristic should be in the load profile ?

Best Regards

Hello Stefan,

I would also need your help. Would you perhaps have an example of what it should look like and or create a video showing this?
I urgently need help here

best regards

Maybe first try to getting used to OpenEMS.

As far as i can see you did not successfully start OpenEMS either way…

Also please use the Getting Started for OpenEMS first.

It works on one device. Only on the other device it doesn’t work and gives me this error
