== Description == 
The '''Solar Panel''' generates power by absorbing sunlight, depending on solar intensity, up to 500W per panel on the moon. Can be manually rotated using a [[Wrench]]. Can be built in two configurations, one with opposite side split power/data ports, or two with same side combined power/data ports.

Data ports can interact with [https://stationeers-wiki.com/Sensors#Daylight_Sensor Daylight Sensors] and logic i/o writers or batch writers to automatically rotate the panel to face the sun.

At the extreme attitude settings (0/100) the solar panel still faces 15 degrees above the horizon. Thus the total arc of vertical rotation is only 150 degrees from input values 0-100.

Can also be destroyed by storms, or left with very little health. Best course of action is to remove the solar panels when you are notified of a storm by a [[Weather Station]], Which allows you to replace them once the storm is over.

== Positioning == 

Pay close attention to the positioning of your solar panel since their automation will depend heavily on it.
Most user-made scripts and guides orient the panels with the data port facing sunset and the power port facing sunrise.

[[File:Solar panel yaw-Horizontal setting.png|400x300px|solar panel horizontal rotation]]

==Notes== 
After placement be sure to install one [[Glass Sheets|Glass Sheet]] to make it functional.

See [[Sensors]] and [[Solar_Logic_Circuits_Guide]] for panel automation using logic circuits.

Rivvern: Added info about new Horizontal and Vertical properties for Daylight Sensor

<languages />

| createdwith = [[Electronics Printer]], [[Fabricator]], [[Hydraulic Pipe Bender]]

[[Sensors]] are used to detect different conditions of the world. They can be read by the [[Logic]] [[Computer]]s as well as used when correctly configured by some devices, such as a [[Console]] with a [[Circuitboard (Airlock Control)]].

= Daylight Sensor = 

{{Structurebox
| name = Daylight Sensor
| image = [[File:ItemKitSensor.png]]
| placed_with_item = [[Kit (Sensors)]]
| placed_on_grid = Small Grid, On Frames
| decon_with_tool1 = [[Hand Drill]]
| item_rec1 = [[Kit (Sensors)]]
}}

The daylight sensor reports whether the sun hits the large grid the sensor is in, as well as the solar angle. Looking at the sensor will provide a tool-tip readout of this information, even when not connected to the network. The orientation of the daylight sensor is important, it will read different angle values depending on the orientation.

'''Update''': While the <kbd>Mode</kbd> and <kbd>SolarAngle</kbd> properties described below are still available, they are being deprecated in favor of <kbd>Horizontal</kbd> and <kbd>Vertical</kbd> data properties, returning the same as their <kbd>Mode</kbd> counterparts.

The daylight sensor has a <kbd>Mode</kbd> property which can be set with logic writer and memory chip, 0 = default, 1 = horizontal, 2 = vertical. Other values will throw an index-out-of-range error in console if you mouse-over the sensor. Each mode defines a specific behavior for how the solar angle is calculated.

== Modes ==
In default mode, the sensor will return the absolute value of the angle formed by the source of light and the normal vector of the sensor (towards which the grey/green part is facing). 0 means the source of light is facing to the sensor, 90 means it is aligned with the surface the sensor was laid on, and 180 means the source of light is in the back of the sensor. The angle is always a positive value between 0 and 180.

[[File:Daylight sensor horizontal.png|200x150px|thumb|daylight sensor in horizontal mode]]
In horizontal mode, the sensor will return the angle formed by the reference vector (opposites the network connector) and the projection of the source of light on the surface the sensor was laid on. Positive values designate angles counter-clockwise when facing the sensor. The angle can be negative, ranging between -180 and +180.
[[File:Daylight sensor vertical.png|200x150px|thumb|daylight sensor in vertical mode]]
In vertical mode, the sensor measures the angle between the normal of the surface the sensor was laid on and the position of the sun.

=== Notes ===

Solar panel work using clockwise reference angles, which means depending of the situation you may have to invert the values returned by sensors' horizontal or vertical modes.

The sensor always reports an angle to a logic reader at all times.

See https://stationeers-wiki.com/Solar_Logic_Circuits_Guide for more solar panel logic discussion.

=== Examples ===
On the moon/space :
* If the daylight sensor is fixed on the floor, it will report 90 degrees at sunrise, up to 0 degrees at noon, back to 90 degrees at sunset, to 180 degrees at midnight, and back to 90 at sunrise.
* If fixed on a ceiling the cycle will be opposite, i.e.: 90 -> 180 -> 90 -> 0 -> 90.
* If fixed to an east facing wall, the cycle from sunrise is: 0 -> 90 -> 180 -> 90 -> 0.
* If fixed to a west facing wall, the cycle is opposite, i.e.: 180 -> 90 -> 0 -> 90 -> 180.
* If fixed to a north or south facing wall it will stay at 90 degrees all the time.

Other :
* If you lay a sensor on the ground, facing upwards, connector towards south,configured in horizontal mode, it will work like a compass with 0 = north, 90 = east, 180 = south and -90 = west

The gas sensor will report information about the gas in the current atmosphere, such as pressure, contents and temperature.

Note: Temperature is given in Kelvin, while your suit gives a readout in Celsius.

Celsius + 273.15 = Kelvin
