3 Basics | 24
To launch V8.6 fromINCA
To establish a connection, V8.6 and INCA (V7.2.2 or higher) must be installed on
the same machine.
1. As a prerequisite, you have preselected V8.6 as default MDA version in
INCA under User Options > General tab.
2. Launch V8.6, e.g., by doing one of the following:
l
After having finished the measurement recording in the Experiment
Environment of INCA, click .
l
While the recording is still running in INCA, you can take a snapshot, also
by clicking . The recording must be in the file format *.mdf4.
Please note that the snapshot recording requires a combination of MDA
V8.4.1 and INCA V7.3.0 or higher.
For further details about the settings for snapshot recording, please
see the INCA User Documentation.
l
In the INCA main window, click SHIFT + . Then, select the measure files
that you want to use in V8.6.
3. Perform your analysis in V8.6.
4. With INCA V7.2.14 (or higher) and MDA V8.3.3 (or higher), if MDA is already
open, and exactly one measure file is assigned to the active configuration,
a measure file replacement will take place. In case more than one file is
assigned to the active configuration, a dialog appears to decide for an add
or a replace operation. For more information, see "To use the "Add or
Replace Files" dialog" on page34.
If INCA provides besides the measure file also an XDA file, and MDA V8 has
no or only an empty configuration, MDA V8 imports the XDA file and the
measure file from INCA.
