MDF file
This file is a binary file format for measurement data (MDF). This format
is used to store, exchange and analyze measure data for automotive
system development purposes. MDF files contain so-called meta-
information like user, company, project, file comments etc. Typically for
MDF format version V3.x the file extension *.dat is used. For MDF
format version V4.x, the file extensions *.mdf or *.mf4 are used.
Measure file
File containing measure data (independent from the actual file format,
e.g. MDF).
Measure variable
Placeholder for a variable which can usually not be influenced directly
(i.e. calibrated); often used for showing the effects of calibration activ-
ities or environmental conditions. The placeholder does not include the
actual samples.
N
No-Match status
Status of signals that are not contained in a measure file, e.g., after repla-
cing the measure file. In this case, no measure data can be displayed.
