"The CSP ops Smallest TOU period cannot be less than 1" was created by Juliette Marti

Hello, I'm using a Python code generated by the SAM GUI, running it on my Linux terminal. The case is a single-owner solar tower power plant. For some simulations (I'm trying to optimize the dispatch matrix), I get this error:

Code:

﻿﻿tcsmolten_salt simulation error
         : exec fail(tcsmolten_salt): The CSP ops Smallest TOU period cannot be less than 1

My problem is that I cannot find which variable of my code this information is related to, ie. which variable is used to calculate this TOU period.

Thank you a lot for your help.
