DM Photometrics Feature
Light Fixture Manufacturer Independent
DM Photometrics is not tied to any fixture manufacturer’s catalog. It reads standard IES photometric data files, which every major manufacturer publishes for their products. You specify the fixtures your project requires, and DM Photometrics uses their actual photometric performance data.
When a substitution is required — by availability, cost, or client preference — you swap the IES file and all calculations update immediately. No re-entering data, no manual corrections.
Any IES File
Import photometric data files from any manufacturer. The standard IES format is supported across all fixture types — area lights, wall packs, canopy fixtures, and more.
Easy Substitution
Replace one fixture family with another in seconds. All foot-candle calculations, schedules, and uniformity ratios recalculate automatically.
Client-Specified Products
If a client requires a specific manufacturer, just load that product's IES file. Your workflow is the same regardless of the brand specified.
“Design Master Photometrics is very economical to own and pays for itself over and over in terms of time saved.”
