General Room Data

The room number, the room name and the room temperature for the heating or cooling mode are displayed on the left-hand side, which you can adjust as required. Depending on the module, you can use the button to the right of the room temperature to open the Temperatures dialog, in which you can select the temperature variables stored in the master tables and create new temperature variables.

Car Park

Drop-down list for specifying the car park to which the room is assigned. Car parks must be created at project level. After assigning a car park, a car park section is automatically created for the room. For car parks for which Aggregate Calculation is activated at the project level, the car park section table is deactivated.

If necessary, use the Room Selection for Car Park dialog to assign several rooms to a car park at once. At project level, click the button in the Rooms/Room column in the row for the corresponding car park to open the dialog.

Table of Car Park Areas

In order to accurately determine the distances traveled by the vehicles, the car parks must be divided into car park sections, unless the car park is to be calculated on a flat-rate basis. Car park areas can be, for example, the individual parking decks, the parking rows of a parking deck or certain sections of parking rows. The room must be assigned to a car park in order to create car park sections. Car parks are created at project level. If Aggregate Calculation is activated for a car park at project level, the car park section table is disabled.

In the table, you create the individual car park sections and enter the values required for air volume determination. Click in an empty row of the table or use the F5 key to add car park sections. Use the F6 key to remove selected car park sections from the table. The number of parking spaces, the entry and exit routes into and out of the car park and the route along the parking spaces must be specified for each car park area. The entry and exit routes do not include routes that lead through other car park areas, as these routes are defined separately in the Routes through other Car Park Areas dialog. Open the dialog by clicking on in the S column.

By clicking you have the possibility to copy the contents of the table with or without column heading and paste it into Excel.

If you have selected individual rows or cells, you can copy the selected data with the key combinations Ctrl+C (with column heading) or Ctrl+Shift+C (without column heading) and paste it into Excel, for example.
