[RE-wrenches] Solar Pathfinder data manipulation

[Glenn Burt]

Hi Greg,

 

We use this tool & on the first page where you setup a new report, you can
specify the 'surface tilt settings' and override the Latitude default.

You can create a full report, then 'edit report' and change the tilt to run
other scenarios.

 

HTH

Hi all,

I'm doing a few Solar Site Survey Reports using the Solar Pathfinder
Assistant 4.0 Software.  We get snow and it sticks to modules so we need to
be able to model the arrays at 85 or 90 degrees during the likely snowy
months and closer to 50 degrees during the other months.  I was hoping a)
that the SP software would allow me to do this or b) it would allow me to
export the data tables into ms excel so I can do it myself.  I can't seem to
figure out a way to get it to let me do either.  

I can't believe I'm the only wrench in North America that has tried to do
this.  Anyone out there already done this successfully or know of another
program that I can buy to get it done?  I can just retype all the data into
excel every time I do a report but that seems a slow way to do it and
invites typing errors into the data set.

Thanks in advance,
