[Equest-users] LS-G: Space Daylighting Summary - Glare

I'm testing out the daylight summary for glare.  I have a three story facility with six television lounges (one on each floor for two wings).  One faces south and the other faces southwest.  I only modeled the important structures that would possibly affect this study since that is all that was needing to be investigated.  These spaces are the only areas that I show with glazing, so as to focus the report.  The report produced  a six page report.  I'm guessing it's for each area.  The question is that the glare index shows values of 15 and less, but the 'Percent Hours Glare Too High' shows zero for all months and all zones.  The glare values show to be in the low end of the Glare Index, but I can't imagine that there's no times the glare is in a high range.

Any assistance in this inquiry is appreciated.
