Description
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 Daylight Sensors and logic i/o writers or batch writers to automatically rotate the panel to face the sun.
At the extreme altitude 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.
Notes
After placement be sure to install one Glass Sheet to make it functional.
See https://stationeers-wiki.com/Solar_Logic_Circuits_Guide for panel automation using logic circuits.
