lightCALC advanced – Step 4 – Units

 

This section allows you to change from feet to meters, and from footcandles to lux.  In this way, the program will allow you to express all your results in either standard or metric terms.

 

If you desire a metric layout, it is suggested that you make these setting changes prior to all of your input.  Making a change to metric after concluding all input can lead to necessary changes in output values and graphics.
