System > Technical Data
3D: PV*SOL Expertopens the 3D Visualization. There you define the terrain,
buildings or slopes, cover roofs, mount modules and wire them by using 3D objects. The
3D Visualization has its own help.
2D: The technical data for the system configuration are entered in this dialog, which
is made up of a number of worksheets.
-> Preconditions:
1. Planning a 2D system
2. The sheets used vary according to the system type (grid connected or stand-alone).
-> Proceed as follows:
1. On the first page ”System”, you need to select whether the system uses an inverter system
or multiple inverters.
2. Enter the number of Arrays for both types of system.
You can enter up to a maximum of six arrays.
A corresponding number of pages then appear on the bottom of the dialog, so that
you can define the parameters for each array separately.
With a single array the page is labelled ”Array”. A number of arrays are labelled:
”Array 1”, ”Array 2” etc.
3. The other pages of the dialog vary depending on the selected system: Grid
Connected or Stand-Alone.
About the buttons located on the right hand side of the dialog:
4. Losses

6. Click on System Diagram for displaying a system sketch. This sketch also forms
part of the Summary Report.
7. Following a positive system check, you can start the Simulation.
