Hello,
When you download a weather file to use with SAM, it is a good idea to put it in a special folder on your computer for weather files. Then, in SAM, go to the Location and Resource page, and click Folder settings, and add the folder to the list SAM scans for weather files. Then you should see your file in the solar resource library.
If you use this approach instead of the Use a specific weather file on disk check box, you can see summary data about the file on the Location and Resource input page, and also display the data by clicking View data.
Best regards,
Paul.
