Data source
The source file section of the interface indicates what data originates from the source and what the parameters coming from other sources are. It is, for instance, still quite common for the hourly temperature to not be available. When this occurs PVSyst mentions the origin of the external field. |
A specificity exists for *.MET files synthetically generated from monthly values. For such files the source file section lists the parameters initially available in the monthly source |

Time
Shifts
Within the conversion
protocol of files uploaded via the general
ASCII importing tool and with files written in the
PVSyst
standard format and uploaded via the
Import meteo data section of PVSyst, users have the
possibility to define time shifts for their dataset. 2 flags may
be used, the Hour shift
flag expressed in hours and the Time shift flag expressed in
minutes.
Read carefully our
meteonote related to this topic. Do not confuse between
the time shift defined in the source file and the time shift used
by the simulation, whose value is shown in the
Data characteristics section of this form.
