I. General Notes:
 
	A.  The .ies photometric data file is not included in this Revit family file (.rfa), 
	    however, it is available through the website listed above. These files can deliver 
            accurate results for photometric study and, in many cases, offer realistic
            rendering. In other cases, these absolute .ies files may not offer the best
            solution for rendering because of factors such as housing geometry and the
            photometric center of the .ies file. In such cases, changing the .ies file to
            one/or more alternative light sources may create a better rendering.

	B.  All Cerno .rfa files may contain minor reductions in geometric complexity. Such
            reductions are typically internal components or small external elements that
            would generally not be noticeable in renderings.

        C.  All Cerno Revit Materials are digital representations and can vary slightly from
            real-world product.

        D.  Cerno makes no representation of the completeness or accuracy of any photometric 
            analysis performed with a Family. The visual and calculative performances of
            Revit models are only as accurate as permitted by the quality of third-party
            provided .ies files and the performance and stability of Revit itself and any
            associated third-party software/plugins.



II. Family-Specific Notes (Capistrano Pendant):

    Note: Family-specific notes are often (but not always) associated with parameters listed
          in the Family's Type Editor.


        A. Inner Hardwood Strip Comments: The Inner Hardwood Strip is (CM-001 Walnut) for
           every Wall Finish option. The one exception is when Wall Finish is CM-095 (White Washed
           Oak); in this case, the Inner Hardwood Strip is also CM-095 (White Washed Oak)

        B. Electrical Connector Comments: This Family contains one electrical connector. The
           real-world split canopy suspension variations have wiring points through more than one
           canopy; consult with manufacturer spec sheet for more information.
