enter shade factor from solar pathfinder was created by HarnessTheSun
I use the solar pathfinder for actual site shade analysis.
I have a photograph of the Pathfinder angle estimator.
I am familiar with entering the % of shade in Power Clerk but I dont see how to enter it into SAM
I saw the chart with 0 to 90 on left side & 0 to 360 on top with a grid for data.
Do you have a you-tube video or more directions?

also the derate for snow does not seem to auto populate

Hello,

SAM can import data from the SolarPathfinder Assistant software. For instructions, see the Shading topic in SAM's Help system.

Best regards,
Paul.
