Phases
**********************************************************

In Analyzer in Moving window and areas
==========================================================

Phases are used to generate a TRUE/FALSE result in the Analyzer with the
help of different, self-configurable conditions, which can be used for
optical marking. In addition, [ALT + Arrow left] and [ALT + Arrow right ] can be used to jump
back and forth between phases, e.g., to compare channel values quickly
and easily.

Furthermore, it is very useful to use phase to quickly analyze ECU error
bits.

If *Phase definition* is pressed under *Measurement* in the Analyzer, a
phase configuration window opens (see *Phases configuration window*)


.. important:: 
   Instead of opening *Measurement* tab and click on *Phases definition* also shortcut [SHIFT]+[P] can be used in *Analyzer*! 

The phases for moving window and areas are switched on and off via
*Measurement* -> *Show phases*.

.. important:: 
   Instead of opening *Measurement* tab and click on *Phases* to acitvate phases, also shortcut [P] can be used in *Analyzer*! 


Example
----------------------------------------------------------

Phase condition: V\_GPS > 200 km/h:



.. figure:: /Images/Phases/Phases_OFF.png 
   :scale: 50 %
   :align: center
   
   Phases OFF


..

.. figure:: /Images/Phases/Phases_ON.png 
   :scale: 50 %
   :align: center
   
   Phases ON

**Red Phase active lines are also shown in Overview window!**

.. attention:: 
   Since WinARace 2022 the phases conditions settings can be saved in currently used template! 


In Plots, Exports, MinMax, …
==========================================================

Besides using phases for quick data overview, they can be also used in
many other functions of the Analyzer, such as *Export*, *MinMax tables*,
*X-Y plots*, *histograms* to only use/visualize a defined set of
measurement data for the functions!

If phases are activated in the *Analyzer* functions via
tick-box, the phases configuration window can be opened via phases
button beside the tick-box:

   Phases Tickbox and phases selection button

  
Configuration window
==========================================================

.. important:: 
   Phases configuration window is same for Analyzer and Analyzers functions!

   Phases configuration window

Under *Available conditions*, various conditions are
available, which are added to the *Active conditions* by
double-clicking. If you click on a condition in the *Active condition*
area, the respective condition can be set in the right part of the
window. Of course, more than one condition can be added to the active
conditions.

Laps/Selection
----------------------------------------------------------

.. figure:: /Images/Phases/LapsSelection.png 
   :scale: 50 %
   :align: center
   
   Laps/Selection


- **Current Lap**: Considering data only from current lap
- **Current selection**: Considering data only from current moving window selection
- **All laps without in/out**: Considering data from all laps despite in and out lap
- **Selection in all laps without in/out**: Considering data only from current moving window selection despite in and out lap
- **Fastest lap**: Considering data only from fastest lap


Range
----------------------------------------------------------

.. figure:: /Images/Phases/Range.png 
   :scale: 50 %
   :align: center
   
   Range

Considering only data based on *Meters*,*Seconds* or *Scan* selection.

Channel dependent
----------------------------------------------------------


.. figure:: /Images/Phases/Channel.png 
   :scale: 50 %
   :align: center
   
   Channel dependent

Considering data only when value of selected channel is inside lower and upper limit.


Phase condition logic
----------------------------------------------------------
The respective linking of the active conditions takes place in the
*Phase condition logic* part, in which it is decided according to which
method (AND, OR or event-based) the active conditions are to be linked.
Only one type of link can be selected here!

Delete phases
----------------------------------------------------------
Furthermore, *Delete phases* can be used to enter a time from the start
of the measurement for either one phase (in the right-hand window) or
for the result of all phases (in the lower part of the configuration
window) for which the phase or the result is FALSE.

Preview
----------------------------------------------------------
The button *Preview* can be used to open the preview window, which
explains the various conditions:

..

.. figure:: /Images/Phases/Phases_AND.png 
   :scale: 75 %
   :align: center
   
   Phases condition - AND

..

.. figure:: /Images/Phases/Phases_OR.png 
   :scale: 75 %
   :align: center
   
   Phases condition - OR

..

.. figure:: /Images/Phases/Phases_CreateEvents.png 
   :scale: 75 %
   :align: center
   
   Phases condition - Create events

..
   
By clicking on **Close** the respective phases configuration is saved!
