Re-Aiming Luminaires - Concepts

The Re-Aim Luminaire command allows you to change a single luminaire's aiming point. You may operate the command in Plan, Elevation or Isometric Views depending on the aiming condition you wish to alter. The Re-Aim function focuses the luminaire's nadir (the 0-degree vertical point of photometry) at a point. It should not be used with indirect luminaires  or others tested in an operating position away from nadir.

Luminaires placed with Aim and Orient or Static Aiming should be Re-Oriented rather than Re-Aimed so as not to alter their tilt angles. Luminaire arrangements and groups cannot be Re-Aimed as they consist of multiple luminaires with unique aiming points.

Note: When the Parametric Mirror command is applied, all parametrically related luminaires will be re-aimed. You can temporarily disable the Parametric relationship and re-aim a single luminaire, by holding down the Ctrl key during the Re-Aim process.

Selecting luminaires to filter for a particular Z coordinate

Press the SHIFT key during the selection process to select luminaires located at the current Z coordinate. This can be very helpful when selecting stacked luminaires. Set the Z coordinate using the Page Up and Page Down keys on the keyboard.
