Error when using .readWeatherFile on TMY data

[olipfeifferthkoeln]

Hello,

I already used bifacial radiance quite a lot. But today a new problem appreared.
I want to use my own TMY3 file as irradiance and weather data input and I am pretty shure that the format is correct. But when I hand it over to the .readWeatherFile function, it can not interpret the data anymore, as can be seen in the error message. I already installed the right pandas version.

Do you have any idea what the problem might be? Since it is not possible to read in a pandas data frame directly in the .readWeatherFile function, it seems like the only option is change something in the .csv file.

Hi Oliver

Would you be able to please send me a sample weather file by email to test this?

Hi Silvana,

I found a solution. I had bifacial radiance 0.4.2. An update to 0.4.4 helped.
