-- `Add Elevators to Model`. This will only be added to buildings with more than one story. Number of floors will be used to determine the elevator type, and the number of occpants can determine both the number of elevators and can impact the schedule. To avoid large jumps in parametric analyses, the number of elevators is a double instead of an integer, but will never be less than 1.0 for multi-story buildings, but can for example be 2.6 or 1.5 elevators, instead of just 1 or 2. The logic used isn't depending on a space or space type existing for elevators. The space laod will be added to the largest space on the first story.

For thermal zones on the primary zone, where  multi-zone air loops are added, one air loop will be added for each building story. A sizing run will be performed however the elements in the model will stay autosized. The sizing run is to identify the proper target system efficency.

+- `Add Elevators to Model`. This will only be added to buildings with more than one story. Number of floors will be used to determine the elevator type, and the number of occupants can determine both the number of elevators and can impact the schedule. To avoid large jumps in parametric analyses, the number of elevators is a double instead of an integer, but will never be less than 1.0 for multi-story buildings, but can for example be 2.6 or 1.5 elevators, instead of just 1 or 2. The logic used isn't depending on a space or space type existing for elevators. The space load will be added to the largest space on the first story. Fraction of heat lost will be set to 1.0 for traction elevators.

-- `Add HVAC System to Model`. This may add a secondary system for zones with internal loads or schedules that are dis-similar from the typical zones. For thermal zones on the primary zone, where  multi-zone air loops are added, one air loop will be added for each building story. A sizing run will be performed however the elements in the model will stay autosized. The sizing run is to identify the proper target system efficency.

This argument shows up in a number of measures, and then intent is to enable the synchronization of arguments that may be used as a variable in a parametric study across multiple measures. Generally measure ahve uqniue argument names that don't exist, but some such as `Template` are used frequently. This argument, when set to true, will use the value of `Template` from an earlier measure in the workflow, if found, in place of what is entered as the value for this measure.
+- `Use Upstream Argument Values` can be left at the default value of true for most cases. This argument shows up in a number of measures, and then intent is to enable the synchronization of arguments that may be used as a variable in a parametric study across multiple measures. Generally measures gave unique argument names that don't exist in other measures, but some such as `template` are used frequently. This argument, when set to true, will use the value of `Template` from an earlier measure in the workflow, if found, in place of what is entered as the value for this measure.
 - `Unmet Hours Tolerance` is used to change the tolerance used in EnergyPlus for unmet heating and cooling hours.
-- `Clean Model of non-geometry objects` shoudl be set to false when you have a non-empty model with objects that you want to maintain. If you have split this measure in two the second instance of this should have it set to false or it will overwrite elements made by the earlier measure.

 ## Development Comments
 
-This measure relies on the openstudio-standards gem which is included in the OpenStudio CLI as well as a number of resources files listed below that are contained in the measure's `resources` directory. Other than the arguments almost none of the measure code is in the measure.rb file. The resource files are used by a number of measures and should be udpated from the shared library and not within this measure.
