Modeler Properties and Operation
Array Tab
Basic properties of the array are set In the Array tab.
Array Position
Top/Center/Bottom:
Set the Z-coordinate of the array. Center is for the array center; Top/Bottom are
for top/bottom plate of the array. Top/Bottom are linked to the Center. You can use the Top/Bottom
coordinate to specify the mounting height on site. Note that this is the Z-coordinate of the model, which
may not necessarily be the distance from floor (when the Z-coordinate of the floor is 0, they match).
Yaw:
Set the yaw of the array.
Array Configuration
Modules:
Specify the number of the modules in an array. Select from 1, 2 or 3.
Beams:
Specify the number of the beams radiated from the array. Either Single beam or Dual beams.
Note:
For the actual system, Dual beams are possible only using the Dante® input.
Array Name:
You can name the array, such as ‘Main Left’. This name is used to manage the link between
Modeler and CSD later in the workflow.
Comments:
This field can be used to describe the beam pattern (e.g. ‘Weekday, covering main floor only’,
‘Sunday, covering main floor + balcony’). The comments chosen in this field are indicated in CSD later in
the workflow. This can be useful when comparing multiple beam patterns for an array rather than looking
at parameter values (e.g. Steer -10°, 10°).
