I imported an IES file of our undercabinet light fixture into Dialux and played with it in various scenarios and it worked well and the reports and flux diagrams were pretty much spot on (pardon the pun). So I can tell you that it is possible to bring in IES files and create your own luminaires without the hand-holding from Dial but since I haven't done it in over a year, I don't remember the steps. It did require quite a bit of trial and error due to the lack of any Dialux documentation/tutorials at the time but it can be done. Perhaps those out in the community with more experience importing IES files could help? Come on guys, let's give vibhor a hand! :) It’s been soooo long since I messed with Dialux but what I can tell you is that my company is also a small manufacturer and we make LED undercabinet lighting fixtures and LED refrigerated case lighting.
