Hello Christian,
I know it is not convenient but you can check in the component source 
code. Please find attached the .txt file. I'll let you know if I heard 
about a more precise documentation.
Best regards,
Simon

Subroutine Type30
!***********************************************************************************************
! Collector array shading - this component will determine the incident radiation upon an array
! of collectors that shade one another.
!
! Revision History:
!  1993.05.00 - JWT
!  2004.02.00 - TPM: Updated to TRNSYS 16 coding standards.
!  2005.08.29 - DEB: Started adding PAR checks to avoid a divide by zero.
!  2005.09.28 - DAA  Major changes to Mode2 - Parabollic collector array:
!                    1. Changed number of possible outputs from 20 to 2.
!                    2. Changed number of parameters to 5
!                    3. 'ModeAx' parameter is not needed anymore.
!                    4.  RCHECK was not being called.
!  2005.06.05 - JWT/DAA : Added new outputs to mode 1
!  2009.02.18 - MJD/DEB : fixed the INFO(6) setting for mode 1. 
!  2009.06.00 - TPM : conversion to version 17 coding standards
