A candela plot is a plot of luminous intensity, or flux per solid angle. In photometric {KSy I#
units, a luminous intensity plot is in units of candelas (lumens per steradian). In hyY^$p+
radiometric units, an intensity plot is in units of watts per steradian. Candela plots SduUXHk
are commonly used in the design of illumination systems, especially those used in ypNeTR$4
the far field. A:\_ \B%<
Candela data can be collected from ray sets of Missed rays, rays Exiting a surface [$M l;K
or rays Incident on a surface. Missed rays are a collection of all rays that “leave” @h\i<sh!^
the model and “go off to infinity.” Exiting rays are the collection of ray segments }tJMnq/m($
following the intersection point of a ray at a surface. Due to ray splitting, several \==Mgy2J8
ray segments may contribute to the candela data for each incident ray. Incident p

rays are the collection of ray segments which intersect the selected surface. No `(]mUW
surface selection is required for Missed rays but one is necessary for Exiting and ]UrlFiR

The candela plots represent flux versus angle and can be smoothed using the u4xJ-Vu
Candela Options dialog box. The iso-candela plots can be presented as false t&-c?&FO\;

The orientation of the candela plots is determined by the Normal Vector and the +!t *LSF
Up Vector, as specified in the Analysis|Candela Options dialog box. The ltHuN;C\
normal vector specifies the axis of the candela plot and the up vector specifies 7'5/T]Z
“which way is up.”
