Setting the Behavior in Case of Measurement Failures
During measurements or when starting a measurement, measurement failures can occur, e.g. when a device loses the connection to the host. INCA enables you to set the desired behavior of the system in case of such a measurement failure.
To set the measurement failure behavior:
In the Hardware menu, select Set Meas. Failure Behavior.
The Measurement Failure Behavior dialog opens.
Select the desired option:
Note
The setting will be applied to all devices in all chains of the current configuration.
Specifies how the system should react if the connection between INCA and the hardware module is interrupted at measuring start or during measurement.
Abort after failure
The measurement using this hardware module will be terminated in any case of measurement failure (at measuring start or during measurement). The system does not try to reinitialize the hardware module. After the connection has been interrupted, you have to reinitialize manually.
This option is appropriate when, e.g., the measured values are not essential for the experiment, as the module will be ignored after any failure. This option is the default.
Abort at start, try again later
INCA stops measurement of this module in case of failure at measuring start, assuming the module is disconnected or has any systematic problem.
It continues to try measurement in case of failure during the measurement assuming the failure is temporal and can be resolved via retries.
Retry always
INCA continues to try measurement of this module in any case of measurement failure (at measuring start or during measurement).
This option is useful if you want to conduct quick start or cold start measurements.
