BUG---PHOTOVOLTAIC SYSTEM REPORT was created by JavierGarcía
Hi.

My name is Javier, from El Salvador. I have been using SAM-Photovoltaic (detailed and PVWatts) since 2019.

When I create a report and my system has more than one subarray, in the field "Modules by string" SAM puts the "modules by string" of subarray 1 in all other subarrays.

The following screenshots show what I say.




Looking a bit I think the error is in file "pv.samreport", in the line that says

"tbl_array [2] [col] = var ('subarray1_modules_per_string');". I think it should be

"tbl_array [2] [col] = var ('subarray' + i + '_modules_per_string');".

I tried to change it but SAM stopped recognizing the file.

Actually, just by opening and saving the file without changes, SAM stops recognizing the file.

Is there a way to modify "pv.samreport" file and keep SAM running or what should I do to fix the problem?

Thanks for your help.
