To get calculation results for a number of selected points. You can use horizontal calculation points, vertical calculation points and free calculation points.
Fig. 298 Calculation points
Horizontal calculation points (shown at the right side of the figure above) cannot be rotated. They always “measure” the planar illuminance of the perpendicular incoming light.
Vertical calculation points (shown at the left side of the figure above) can be turned about the Z-axis. They can “measure” the planar (“normal”) illuminance, the semicylindrical illuminance or the cylindrical of the incoming light. The type can be selected in the Property Page.
Free calculation points can be rotated about all axes. They “measure” the planar illuminance of the light incoming in the direction of the arrow.
The output lists of all calculation points are on one page (“Calculation Points List”). They are sorted according to their type (planar, semi-cylindrical, cylindrical) and their designation. The summary of the results shows maximum, minimum and average value.
Calculation points are a good tool to get the illuminance of stairs, blackboards, etc.
