emulator

Light readings are generated by the SunData software - used for

 

 

 

 

test purposes and for the Tutorial.

 

 

Ext sensor:

BFS

Incident PAR and beam fraction readings are collected from a

 

 

 

 

Beam Fraction sensor attached to the SunScan probe.

 

 

 

none

No external sensor is connected, and readings for incident PAR

 

 

 

 

and beam fraction (if required) have to be measured using the

 

 

 

 

SunScan probe itself.

 

Constants

Absorption

0.5 to 1.0

Set the leaf PAR absorption. 0.85 is typical.

 

 

ELADP

0 to 1024

Set the Ellipsoidal Leaf Angle Distribution Parameter, which

 

 

 

 

models the leaf angles within the canopy. 1 corresponds to a

 

 

 

 

random spherical distribution, 0 to vertical, and 1024 to horizontal.

 

 

 

 

Use 1 as default.
