As of PVsyst 6.7.8: This applies to both fixed tilt and tracking (grid-connected projects). I set nb. sheds = 1. I would not think collector pitch and width matter in this case but perhaps they do b/c of built-in unlimited sheds modeling assumptions? When I vary pitch from 6.6 m to a large value like 100000 m, the energy of the system goes from roughly 4700 to 14000 kWh/year. For a given pitch (nb. sheds = 1), varying width changes energy. Also, you need to close and reopen the project in order for changes to nb. sheds, pitch, or width to take effect. I will update this post later w/ more information and examples when I have time.
