The easiest way to do this would be to model a small part of your system and multiply the output. If you are modelling a system with minimal shading and even spacing throughout the project, modeling a small block and multiplying the results should be the same as modeling the larger system. You might need to weight average your ac losses to get an accurate estimate though if those vary throughout the array.

I don't think there is a way to modify multiple objects at once. However, I've found a slight workaround that may work for you. If you place an object below your array with a given tilt, say a roof with a roof angle of 20 degrees, and select Tools>position tables on scene, all the objects should adjust to the tilt of that roof angle.

Hi Andre, Any updates as to when PVsyst will have its own Sketchup plugin? Thanks.

I have a near shading scene where each module is represented by its own individual PV table. I would like to run the simulation according to module strings. In order to partition the strings, I have to mark each module as 1 string in width by 1 string in height (modules are in landscape, 18 modules/string). I know this is not technically true, but is this the most accurate way to model it? I have also thought of using 3 strings in height, 1 in width due to the module having 3 diodes. Any thought would be appreciated. Thanks.
