Azimuth
The azimuth angle indicates by how many degrees the module
surfaces deviate from a southern orientation.
• In the text field, enter the number of degrees by which the
module surfaces deviate from a southern orientation. Enter a
negative value (e.g. − 20) for a deviation to the east and a
positive value (e.g. 20) for a deviation to the west.
• If the module surfaces track the sun automatically, activate the
checkbox Tracking.
Tilt angle
The tilt angle indicates by how many degrees the module surfaces
deviate from the horizontal. In some systems, the module surfaces
are optimally aligned according to the latitude. In Germany, the
optimum orientation is 30 degrees from the horizontal.
• In the text field, enter the number of degrees by which the
module surfaces deviate from the horizontal.
• If the module surfaces are optimally aligned according to the
latitude, activate the checkbox Optimized.
