When starting AutoCALC the v50 Fuel Gauge stops at step 1a.4 plus you get a Run-time error 6; Overflow

Working on pipe from Node ### to Node ### with a fitting of "?" and a diameter of / pipe type of 0.5 / SCHED-40 where the pipe id = ###

The "####" values represent handles. It is recommended you use the FINDME tool to find the coordinates of the handles, this will help narrow down the cause of the error.

May also see a Runtime Error 5, "invalid procedure"

Solutions:

Cause:

End user had a 2½" x ½" outlet for a vent on a branchline

Solution:

Autocalc doesn't like that outlet combination. Change the vent diameter to 1" for calc purposes then switch it back to ½" when the calcs are complete.

Cause:

Sprinkler head definition diameters values were set to 'other'

Solution:

Redefine the sprinkler heads to have legitimate values, do not user 'other'
