Jochen, There should not be any changes necessary to a component (fortran or the proformas) between TRNSYS v 16.0 and 16.1. The only difference that I can think of is that with earlier versions (prior to 16.00.0038) external DLLs were all in the ..\Trnsys16\UserLib\ directory. We changed this because if the TRNDll.dll was compiled in one mode (debug versus release) and the external DLLs were compiled in the other mode then there were communication problems between the two. With later releases, if the TRNDll.dll is compiled in release mode, it loads external DLLs from the ..\Trnsys16\UserLib\ReleaseDLLs\ directory whereas if the TRNDll.dll is compiled in debug mode, then it loads its external DLLs from the ..\Trnsys16\UserLib\DebugDLLs\ directory. My guess as to what might be happening in your simulation is that the TRNDll.dll is loading an older version of your component from the wrong directory. Cheers, David
