Question Light Requirements & Shade Cloth

I have a new orchid, named Angcm. 'Tomorrow Star'. The light requirements are stated as 'Strong - 2000+ foot candles'. Does this mean that full sun is okay for this plant? (I thought it might be, since it simply has a plus sign, instead of a top end to the range.) If not, what percent shade cloth would work best?

On that subject, if the plant is specified as needing bright filtered light, is 30% shade cloth okay? I also actually double over the shade cloth towards the hottest sun of the day.
