Using the SunEye
Quick Skyline Capture Mode
6 Tap your finger on the top-right corner of the screen to enter a note for the captured skyline. The
note could include a description of where the skyline was captured. For example, you could enter
“Southeast corner of roof.” You can also enter a skyline note via the
Skyline Properties dialog
box, described in the next step.
7 You can view and change the properties of a skyline by selecting > Skyline > Skyline
Properties….
The Skyline Properties dialog box has two tabs, Panel and General. The panel orientation for a
skyline can be modified in the Panel tab. Other skyline properties can be accessed in the General
tab.
Quick Skyline Capture Mode
When taking numerous SunEye readings at a site, the processing time between Skylines may be
shortened to speed the data capture process. Processing for Skyline analysis (open sky and
obstruction detection) and solar access computations is delayed until a more convenient time.
Processing can be triggered later either manually on the device or automatically when the ses-
sion is transferred from the device to the computer.
Figure 2-24. Quick Skyline Capture Mode
To enable Quick Skyline Capture Mode from the preview screen, tap on the arrow in the upper
left to bring up the menu. Check the Quick Skyline Capture Mode. When in this mode, process-
ing will be delayed, and when a Skyline is captured, the SunEye automatically jumps to the next
preview. To exit without taking a Skyline, press Cancel. Note that the Skyline is not yet pro-
cessed so the green and yellow overlays are not yet shown and the Solar Access reading are not
displayed. Select Process Now to process the active skyline, or Process all skylines in session to
process all skylines.
