The OpenStudio::Model::PhotovoltaicPerformanceSimple class has a conversionEfficiencyInputMode method, but no setConversionEfficiencyInputMode.
Does this mean you can't create one with a Schedule efficiency?
It seems that calling setFixedEfficiency and setEfficiencySchedule will automatically switch the conversionEfficiencyInputMode to Fixed and Scheduled respectively.

That is correct, I think I need to document that better
