The source can be set to either Automatic via forecast service or Push via API. In the automatic variant, the forecast is obtained from forecast.solar. In push mode, the forecast data is provided via the API endpoint solar_forecast/planes/X/forecast_update.

Up to six PV surfaces with different positions and orientations can be added.
