SECUTEST/SECULIFE ST – Getting Started : Data Import from a Test Instrument
Data Import from a Test Instrument
The import function is used to synchronize data from a test instrument or file with the IZYTRONIQ database.
This function can be found in the “PORTABLE OBJECTS” menu under the “IMPORT” function . The import wizard is started by clicking this function.
Test instruments from the SECUTEST series support two alternative ways of exchanging data:
• Data exchange via USB flash drive
• Direct data exchange via USB cable
► In either case, select “FROM TEST INSTRUMENT” in the import window. You can switch back and forth between “Secutest 4 File Import” and your SECUTEST in the drop-down list:
OBJECTS AND TESTS are selected for import by default.
 
Select IMPORT ALL or SELECTION IN IMPORT PREVIEW in order to start the import.
– After selecting IMPORT ALL and clicking IMPORT, import runs automatically.
– If SELECTION IN IMPORT PREVIEW is selected, the data in the IMPORT PREVIEW are displayed first. These data can be selected and post-processed here. The selected objects are subsequently imported into the IZYTRONIQ database by selecting the function.
– A customer from the database can be specified via STANDARD CUSTOMER, if the data include a customer.
 
Attention!
Data Loss!
The last data imported into IZYTRONIQ are always used. If data was saved to the test instrument and then changes were made to the data in IZYTRONIQ, importing the data from the test instrument overwrites these changes once again.
Example: You created a test object (system) in IZYTRONIQ and transferred it to the test instrument (PROFITEST...). The PROFITEST... is being used in the field. At the same time, the system’s technical data are changed in IZYTRONIQ. The data will be imported later from the PROFITEST... to IZYTRONIQ. Afterwards, the system’s modified (new) technical data are overwritten with the old technical data from the PROFITEST....
For this reason, don’t change any data in IZYTRONIQ if they’re used in the test instrument. In other words: If you want to edit data in IZYTRONIQ, transfer the changed data to the test instrument before using the test instrument!
 
Successful import and any transmission errors that may have occurred are displayed.
If conflicts occur between existing data and data to be imported which cannot be resolved automatically, the conflict manager is activated.
