This article is about using the playback module as an option to (further) develop an existing configuration offline.

The example configuration in this article contains the ibaBM-DPMS and LMI Gocator modules. 

A lot of calculations are used and contain signals of all modules, including signals of the virtual interface.


To be able to switch the *dat file in the playback module without

  1. Add the *dat file to the playback interface
    1. Read the *dat file. You want to add the playback modules to the existing configuration. 
    2. In this way it's possible to retain the module numbers of the actual acquisition
  2. To be able to continue with the existing calculations --> remove the playback modules that where created from the virtual modules. 
    1. Unless you want to visualise these signals you do not want them in the playback interface
  3. Change the module numbers of the ibaBM-DPMS/Gocator/e.g.. We added '001'. After this, you will need to change the module numbers of the playback modules to the ones from the ibaBM-DPMS/Gocator/.. because the expressions are using signals from these modules. 
    1. After this you will need to deactivate the ibaBM-DPMS/Gocator/e.g. modules. Otherwise these will return errors. 
  4. Now, when loading a new *dat file with different data, same modules, we choose "don't change" as this will only replace the playback modules. Replacing the plackback modules will result in also adding the virtual modules.
