some questions about using five-phase method for a space with clear glazing

image description

Hello,everyone I find this picture from Tutorial-Five-phase method.pdf link text

I want to ask some questions about daylighting simulation of clear glazing in five-phase method.

  1. image description
    If i want to export the BSDF file of the clear glazing from WINDOW7.5 ,what should i set for WINDOW7.5 ?

2.image description
For Sun-Coefficient simulation, what should i do for proxy surfaces of clear glazing with BSDF file output from WINDOW7.5?

3.image description
Why simulate with eastBlinds.vf ? If there is only a clear glazing , in addition to using this view file:south.vf for simulation, do i need to simulate other view files ?
