Fair Rental Days vs. Personal Use Days

Hi All, looking for some advice here.

If I have a property that I lived in as my primary residence for part of the year (let's say 180 days) and was never previously a rental, and then I convert it into a rental property half way through the year, do I have 180 days of "Personal Use Days" on Schedule E or 0 days of "Personal Use Days". I didn't occupy the property at all after it was made available for rent, and it will continue to be a rental property for future years. Thanks in advance!
