To do so for an energy Sim model, please go to export in the background page of the software:</p> <p><img alt=" " src="/resized-image/__size/600x400/__key/communityserver-wikis-components-files/00-00-00-00-17/1817.jpg" /></p> <p></p> <p>Once you chose the gbxml optrion, the software displays the model into an export viewer, as below, and shows erros if there is any:</p> <p></p> <p><img alt=" " src="/resized-image/__size/680x500/__key/communityserver-wikis-components-files/00-00-00-00-17/6888.jpg" /></p> <p></p> <p>Click export, and Energy Simulator saves the gbxml version under the <strong>results folder of the workset</strong>; however you can save it in other places as well.&nbsp;</p> <p></p> <p></p> <p></p> <p><a href="/cfs-file/__key/communityserver-wikis-components-files/00-00-00-00-17/5850.NewLogo.png"><img style="border-width:0px;" alt=" " height="60" src="/cfs-file.ashx/__key/communityserver-components-sitefiles/TSG-Logo.png" width="189" /></a></p><div style="clear:both;"></div> <div style="font-size: 90%;">Tags: GBXML, Export, OpenBuildings Designer, OpenBuildings Energy Simulator, Interoperability, energy simulator</div>
