audlau Posted February 1 Share Posted February 1 I am currently trying to import a PVcase tracker layout with each tracker consisting of 3-strings and multiple gaps (central motor gap and 2 smaller gaps). Is there anyway to import this directly into PVsyst or add the gaps manually once in PVsyst? I can see the option of "central gap" within PVsyst however it is greyed out and won't let me edit. The other issues this is causing is that the tracker consists of 81 panels (3 x 27) however PVsyst recognises it as a tracker with 84 panels and no gaps.

dtarin Posted February 2 Share Posted February 2 The central gap in PVsyst is for 2P trackers, and defines the spacing between the two modules in portrait. It does not define gaps for motors or bearings . Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Michele Oliosi Posted February 3 Share Posted February 3 Indeed, you cannot establish a gap between each string length in a PVsyst 3D table or tracker. Only a homogeneous gap between each module, and an extra gap for the torque tube / longitudinal central spacing (central gap) if needed. I would suggest splitting the tracker into three trackers, already in the PVcase design. Is that an option for you ? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
sgf20 Posted August 17 Share Posted August 17 Is it possible to create a central gap for 2L trackers when importing a 3D scene? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I see no reason why it shouldn't be possible. But please let us know if it doesn't work out. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
