Omar,<br><br>Some of what you want to do e.g. on/off using an occupancy is best done using a schedule. A 15 % reduction is always acceptable, and you could argue for more if the case can be made for it. For instance if your schedule value for noon is .80 just reduce it by (.80*(1-.15)). If you know that the reduction should be more than 15 % and can clearly state why then you should.<br>
<br>I use specify exact site coordinates, on screen 1 of 25 in the DD wizard, so that I am sure the polygon I am creating is where I want it, I set it to 0,0,0 for the 1st polygon, lower left corner, and go from there. Try putting in the exact coordinates for the lower left corner of each space.<br>

<p class="MsoNormal"><font face="Arial" size="2"><span style="font-size: 10pt; font-family: Arial;"> </span></font></p>
<p class="MsoNormal"><font face="Arial" size="2"><span style="font-size: 10pt; font-family: Arial;">I was wondering whether I can change the daylighting
strategy for each zone alone. For example, on/off for the bathrooms, dimming
for the kitchen…etc.</span></font></p>

<p class="MsoNormal"><font face="Arial" size="2"><span style="font-size: 10pt; font-family: Arial;">Moreover, can someone please explain to me more about the “specify
exact site coordinates” ? Is there a global reference, or the second
shell has the origin of coordinates that of the first shell?</span></font></p>
