Turn VinciLab on by pressing its power button. Wait until the Home Screen appears.  

 

Start Coach 7 (or Coach 7 Lite) on your computer/tablet.

4.1. Communication with Coach 7

.  

 

In  Coach  open  an  Activity/Result  for  measurement  or  create  a  new  measurement 
Activity/Result (Author mode only).  

 

Connect sensor(s) to the sensor input(s) on VinciLab.   

 

VinciLab automatically detects the connected sensor(s) and displays the sensor icons 
of the identified sensors on the VinciLab screen panel. The sensors,  which are not 
automatically identified, have to be selected from the Coach Sensor Library.  

 

The  measurement  is  executed  according  to  the  given  measurement  settings.  Click 

 to check these settings: measurement type, measuring time, sampling frequency 

and number of collected samples. Notice that the max. sampling frequency is 1 MHz 
and the max. number of collected measurement points is 500 000 per input. 

 

Follow the instructions in the Activity or directly start the measurement by clicking 
the 

Start

 button

.   

-

 

In most cases, Coach automatically starts the measurement.  

-

 

If triggering is enabled then the measurement is started automatically when the 
trigger conditions are met. 

-

 

When the type of measurement is set to 

Manual

 then the 

Manual Start

 button 

 appears  in  the  Toolbar.  Click  this  button  to  collect  a  single  measurement. 

When  keyboard  input(s)  is  specified  then  the  value  of  one  or  more  quantities 
have to be typed in.
