Subarray is one of the key parts for Solar Labs design studio. It helps users to pre-define various fields for their design to improve the efficiency of the design creation.

Click on Subarray tab on the Design Defaults pop-up page to view/edit the below mentioned fields:

A. Fixed Mount

Fixed Mount is generally used for RCC and ground mount panel placements.

  • Default

    Click on the Default toggle to mark/unmark Fixed Mount as default panel placement type.

  • Panel

    • Click on the Panel dropdown to choose your modules by filtering various modules with the help of module make, minimum & maximum wattage.

    • Click on your module to select the module for your new designs.

  • Structure Type

    • Click on the Structure Type dropdown to choose your structure type from the dropdown menu.

    • Click on your structure type to select the structure for your new designs.

  • Tilt

    • Input the tilt you want for your modules for your new designs.

  • Azimuth

    • Input the azimuth for your modules/tables for your new designs.

    • It is suggested to choose azimuth after placing the modules on the polygon.

  • Row Spacing

    • Row Spacing is the spacing between the modules for two adjacent rows.

    • User can choose from Auto and Manual row spacing modes.

  • Table Spacing

    • User can input the Table Spacing as desired for their new designs.

  • Table Size Up

    • Table Size Up is the number of rows a user wants in their table.

    • Input the numeric value for the desired number of rows for your tables.

  • Table Size Wide

    • Table Size Wide is the number of columns a user wants in their table.

    • Input the numeric value for the desired number of columns for your tables.

  • Panel Orientation

    • User can choose the panel orientation from Landscape and Portrait orientations for their designs.

  • Mount Height

    • Mount Height is the lower height of the table.

    • User can input the numeric value for the mount height of their module tables.

  • Module Spacing Up

    • Module Spacing Up is the distance between two adjacent module rows of a particular table.

    • User can input the numeric value for the space needed between two adjacent module rows in a table.

  • Module Spacing Wide

    • Module Spacing Wide is the distance between two adjacent module columns of a particular table.

    • User can input the numeric value for the space needed between two adjacent module columns in a table.

B. Flush Mount

Flush Mount is generally used for tilted and shed type panel placements mountings.

  • Placeable

    • Click on the Placeable toggle to mark/unmark Flush Mount as default panel placement type.

  • Panel

    • Click on the Panel dropdown to choose your modules by filtering various modules with the help of module make, minimum & maximum wattage.

    • Click on your module to select the module for your new designs.

  • Structure Type

    • Structure type for the flush mount is not required as the distance between modules and polygons is very less.

  • Tilt

    • Tilt for the flush mount structures will be automatically calculated as per the tilt of the placeable polygon.

  • Azimuth

    • Azimuth for the flush mount structures will be automatically calculated as per the azimuth of the placeable polygon.

  • Row Spacing

    • Row Spacing is the spacing between the modules for two adjacent rows.

    • User can input the desired row spacing for two adjacent rows.

  • Table Spacing

    • User can input the Table Spacing as desired for their new designs.

  • Table Size Up

    • Table Size Up is the number of rows a user wants in their table.

    • Input the numeric value for the desired number of rows for your tables.

  • Table Size Wide

    • Table Size Wide is the number of columns a user wants in their table.

    • Input the numeric value for the desired number of columns for your tables.

  • Panel Orientation

    • User can choose the panel orientation from Landscape and Portrait orientations for their designs.

  • Mount Height

    • Mount Height is the lower height of the table.

    • User can input the numeric value for the mount height of their module tables.

  • Module Spacing Up

    • Module Spacing Up is the distance between two adjacent module rows of a particular table.

    • User can input the numeric value for the space needed between two adjacent module rows in a table.

  • Module Spacing Wide

    • Module Spacing Wide is the distance between two adjacent module columns of a particular table.

    • User can input the numeric value for the space needed between two adjacent module columns in a table.
