PROFITEST / SECULIFE Ip – Getting Started : Data Import from a Test Instrument
Data Import from a Test Instrument
Just like data export, data import can also be found in the “STATIONARY DEVICES” menu under the “IMPORT” function . This function synchronizes data from a test instrument to the existing IZYTRONIQ database. The import wizard also asks whether or not you want to import object data, including tests. It’s also possible to specify whether catalogs will also be transferred.
 
Attention!
Measurements may not be currently started in the test instrument when importing data.
 
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.
 
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.
