Starting the Calibration Data Manager

To start the Calibration Data Manager from the INCA Database Manager:

• In the Utilities menu of the INCA main window, select Calibration Data Manager.

  or

• Double-click on a CDM configuration in the combobox Database objects.

  or

• Select a project in the combobox Database objects.
• Mark a dataset or several datasets in the Datasets list box.
• In the Dataset menu, select Calibration Data Manager.

To start the Calibration Data Manager from the Experiment Environment:

• In the Components menu of the Experiment Environment, select Calibration Data Manage

  The CDM is opened directly from the Experiment, and you can work in the CDM as usual.

In principle, it behaves as if it was opened from the Database Manager, with the following specifics:

• Device:

  CDM is using the device that is currently selected in the experiment. Switching devices in the experiment after having opened the CDM does not affect the CDM configuration.

• Datasets:

  CDM is using the active working page as source and the reference page as destination.

  You cannot change or remove the source in the CDM.

  You cannot remove the destination from the CDM if it is used as memory page in the experiment; however you can add additional destinations and remove them.

  If you switch in the experiment to the reference page, calibrations in CDM are handled as offline calibration. When you switch back to the working page, the changes are downloaded.

  If you change datasets in the experiment, for example, by uploading memory pages from the ECU or freezing the current working data, CDM will replace the datasets in the configuration by the new datasets representing the new memory pages in the experiment.

• Calibration variables:

  Which variables are initially used in the CDM configuration can be set in the INCA user options under Variable Selection for CDM. Adding variables to an experiment or removing them from the experiment after opening the CDM is not applied automatically to the variable selection in the CDM.

  If you open a calibration variable for editing, then the experiment window instead of the CDM Variable Viewer will be activated for calibration. If the variable is already used in the experiment, the corresponding layer and instrument will be activated. If the variable is not yet part of the experiment, a new layer named Calibration Data Manager with a new calibration instrument containing that variable will be created.

  If you calibrate variables in the Experiment Environment, the changes will automatically be sent to CDM.
