How can I model an east-west panel layout?

To model a east-west panel layout, create a flat roof in any design mode.

In the panels task then follow these steps:

  1. Select 'No mounting'
  2. Set the direction to east-west and configure the spacing as needed

  3. Select option 1 to fill the roof with portrait panels, option 2 to fill the roof with landscape panels and 3 to clear the roof.

    Drag and drop portrait or landscape panels to build panel layout

This will not spec the mounting components but will mean the pitch and orientation of the panels is correctly modelled in performance calculations. Get in touch with Midsummer (UK) / (IE) for guidance on mounting components.
