2. If the configuration does not contain a measure file, the instru-
ment is shown without time information in the time slider.
Continue with adding a measure file. For more information, see
"To add a measure file" on page 29.
Import and Layer Handling.
1. In the Configuration Manager, right-click one or more instruments
and choose Copy.
2. If you want to copy the instruments into another configuration,
select this configuration. For more information, see "To select the
active configuration" on page 24.
3. In the Configuration Manager, right-click a layer and choose
Paste.
The instruments are added to this layer. If the name is already in
use, it is extended by an increasing number.
If you have selected a configuration in which the measure file is
not available, the signals in the newly added instruments are indic-
ated as "No-Match" signals. To avoid a "No-Match" situation, an
automatic signal mapping is performed in case the "Copy" source
and the "Paste" target contain both exactly one measure file. To
resolve a "No-Match" situation, see "To replace a signal" on
page 53.
Import and Layer Handling.
1. In the Configuration Manager, select one or more instruments.
2. Drag and drop the instruments to another layer. For more inform-
ation about adding layers, see "To create a new layer" on

Right-click the title bar of the instrument in the instrument win-
dow.
Right-click the instrument in the Configuration Manager.
2. Select Rename.
3. Enter the new name. If the name is not valid, it is displayed with a
red frame. Refer to the tooltip for further information.
