Design Master uses the building and room information and the photometric data attached to each light fixture to perform photometric calculations for interior spaces in a project. These are automatically done when the above-mentioned data is entered into the program. An indoor lighting level report can be inserted onto the drawing to reflect the calculations. A way to display the calculated indoor photometric data is to insert the indoor lighting level report. This command generates a schedule displaying the lighting levels and requirements for every room.

Design Master will ask for an insertion point on the drawing. Click to place the upper-left hand corner of the schedule.
For each room number, Design Master will show the set room type, the desired and actual foot candles, the reflective cavity ratio, the coefficient of utilization, the watts per square foot, and the square footage of the room.
To keep the schedule current, re-insert it after any changes are made to the room definitions or lighting layout. When asked to provide an insertion point for the schedule, pressing ENTER will cause Design Master to erase the existing schedule and insert a updated schedule where the previous schedule was placed.
