Snapshots

With the snapshot function (ODX>Snapshot), it is possible to save the current data of ODX-LINK windows into a file.

Note

A snapshot saves the diagnostic data currently stored in all snapshot-relevant ODX-LINK user views. Please ensure that the windows are updated manually before the snapshot function is triggered!

Meta data you can configure is added to the data read from the ECU (see the section Data Logging Configuration ).

You define which data is to be recorded in a snapshot (option "Snapshot relevant"). The data of the following "user views" can be recorded in snapshots:

The Snapshot icon - a small camera - at the left of the title bar of the relevant dialog window indicates whether the data of a user view is recorded in the snapshot.

To record a snapshot

  1. Click Snapshot from the toolbar of the INCA experiment environment.

    or

    Select ODX>Snapshot.

    If you activated the relevant option in the "Data Logging Configuration", a dialog box for the snapshot meta data is displayed. If you did not activate the option, the data is written immediately.

  2. Enter the relevant meta data. For further details on "Data Logging Configuration", refer to the section Data Logging Configuration .
  3. Click OK.

    The snapshot data is written. If you have set the "Data Logging Configuration" accordingly, the data written is displayed accordingly.
