Planes Mode

In Planes operation mode, audience areas are created in the traditional way, where all dimensions of each plane are entered manually. However, this mode has features that speed up the process, such as the ability to continue the plane automatically from the previous one. Multiple planes can be created from the plus button. Tap to edit and long press the row for rename and options.

Measure Plane

Step 1 – Define the starting point

Where the plane starts in relation to the measurement origin. Edit the file’s zero point on the main page if you want to move it to something other than the measurement zero point.
The Link To feature allows you to continue from the previous one. When a plane is linked to another one plane, the starting point is automatically set to the end point of the previous one. Some of the parameters are also optionally linked.

Step 2 – Dimensions

All values must be entered for Depth, Width and Height.

Step 3 – Modify parameters

Set Wall Height to add wall at the end or side of the plane.
Listener Height can be set.
Chance Color if needed.
Note

Back Wall can be used as ”ArrayProcessing Wall” or for overshooting purposes with autosplay feature.

Multi File Export

Planes mode has a feature where each plane can be exported as a separate file. This is very useful, for example, in situations where the dimensions of different rooms are measured in the same project, but exported as separate files. For example, in an AV installation project, there may be several rooms for which you want a separate simulation file, but you want to measure them on-site for the same On-Axis project.

Step 1 – Enable multi file export function

Step 2 – Planes are organized into export groups

The export group ID (A, B, C etc.) is added to the plane. Each ID represents its own file.
If planes are linked they form one file.
In this mode, the preview has the possibility to view each file separately.
