Importing signal data from Typhoon HIL software

This section describes importing signal data from Typhoon HIL software

Real-time only: This document is valid only for real-time/VHIL simulation.

Signal Analyzer can also dynamically import data sent from HIL SCADA Capture, HIL SCADA Trace widget, TyphoonSim Scope, and FFT.

To export data, right-click it and select the Export data to Signal Analyzer action (Figure 1). In case you want to export data from Capture/Scope or TyphoonSim Scope, you first need to capture some data and then click the icon on the plotting options toolbar (Figure 2).

Note: In case data is exported from the Capture/Scope widget or TyphoonSim Scope, all view-port settings will be preserved and, when signals are imported into Signal Analyzer, they will be arranged at the same view-ports as they were on the Capture/Scope widget or TyphoonSim Scope.
Note: Only data that is captured in the Capture mode of the Capture/Scope widget or TyphoonSim Scope can be exported to the Signal Analyzer tool. Data acquired in the Scope mode cannot be exported.

After data is exported to Signal Analyzer, a new tab with the FROM MEMORY title suffix will be opened (Figure 3). Also, the Capture widget's Signals View Configuration, which includes all viewport settings (background color, legend visibility, viewport display type...) and signals settings (color, line type...) will be transferred to the Signal Analyzer.

In case you want to close this type of tab, you will be asked to export the imported data (Figure 4) to any of the supported signal data file formats (Figure 5).
