Describe the bug
If a user assigns a negative tilt for a 1 axis tracking system it appears to be treated as a positive tilt.
To Reproduce
Steps to reproduce the behavior:
- Start a detailed PV model
- In System Design, select "1 Axis" and assign a negative tilt value (e.g., -10)
- Simulate
- See the notice that describes the tilt as positive
- Compare results (energy, surface tilt and surface azimuth) with a similar case using a positive tilt and see that results are identical.
Expected behavior
One of the following, or similar:
- Issue an error message about negative values being invalid
- Issue a notice message about negative values automatically being converted to positive
- Model the system with the described geometry but with a notice (e.g., model tilt = -10 and azimuth =180 as tilt = 10 and azimuth = 0)
Screenshots
Notice that occurs when assigning a negative tilt (note that tilt angle in the notice is positive):

Results with tilt = 10, azimuth = 180:

Results with tilt = -10, azimuth = 180 (same as above, not what I expected):

Results with tilt = 10, azimuth = 0 (what I expected -10, 180 to look like):
