1.2.1 Getting to Know the Basic Workflow
The following outlines the workflow of a typical MDA V8.5 use case:
l Stage 1: Add Files
To add measure files, preferably the desired target configuration must be
selected. For more information, see "To add a measure file" on page28.
l Stage 2: Select Signals
In the Variable Explorer, you can use filter and search options to find the
variables (respectively signals) that you want to use in your configuration.
Then, you assign the selected variables (respectively signals) to an instru-
ment. For more information, see "To assign signals to a new instrument"
on page47.
l Stage 3: Prepare Analysis
You can enhance and optimize the configuration, for example, by adding
additional signals, instruments, or layers. For more information about the
usage of instruments, see "Instruments" on page74, and about the lay-
ers, see "Using Layers" on page117.
l Stage 4: Perform Analysis
You analyze the data, for example, by creating calculated signals, or by
synchronizing instruments. For more information, see "Calculated Sig-
nals" on page52, respective "To synchronize instruments" on page114.
1.2.2 Getting to Know the Windows
l Configuration
The configuration is the working area in which you can analyze the meas-
ure files. Signals can be visualized in the instruments and analyzed. Addi-
tionally, multiple layers and multiple instruments can be invoked inside a
single configuration file. This allows you to carry out multiple analysis sim-
ultaneously.
The following docking windows provide specific functionality for different
aspects of the analysis.
