Extracting internal shading schedule

Post by Tian »

Hello guys,

I am wondering if there is a possible way to export or import shading schedule for shading device in glazing construction. I would like to have discrete mode only open or close, 0 or 1. I want to export the shading schedule that either it is 0 or 1 over 8760 h after I input the irradiance limit for raise and lower the internal blinds. Therefore, I am able to export this schedule to another daylight simulation software to perform more daylight simulation under the same condition.

Another question is that in order to make sure the shading materials are the same in both IES and the other daylighting software, how to look into the details of the properties of shading materials in the list under the tab. For example the reflectance, specular reflection, diffuse transmission, specular transmission, roughness etc of the shading materials.

Thanks so much for your time and help.
