METADATA DELIVERY USING SCAN TO DESKTOP
IMAGE SEND
When Network Scanner Tool is used in its factory default configuration, a file will be generated
with a new file name on the PC.
When Network Scanner Tool is used as a means of sending a metadata file to a third party
application, this setting must be disabled to allow cross referencing between the image file and
XML file by means of the file name generated by the computer. (When setting the file name in
[Send Settings], to ensure that an existing file on the PC is not overwritten by a transmitted file
of the same name, be sure to configure the file name so that name duplication will not occur;
for example, by including a unique extension (the date, etc.) in the generated file name. If the
file name setting is left blank, the machine will automatically generate a unique file name.)
It is recommended that you use Network Scanner Tool to receive metadata.
For more information, see the Network Scanner Tool User's Guide (PDF format) on
the "Sharpdesk/Network Scanner Utilities" CD-ROM. For information on the licence
agreement and how to use the CD-ROM that accompanies the application
integration module, see the separate "Sharpdesk licence kit" manual.
Using third party applications
Various types of third party applications exist. Some applications can start
automatically from Network Scanner Tool and some cannot.
When the auto-run function of an application is enabled, Network Scanner Tool will
start the application with the ".exe" command using the file name as a parameter.
Normally an application is started twice, once for the image file and once for the
XML file.
For example, when Network Scanner Tool is set to start the application "APP.EXE",
the following commands are applied when the two files "IMG.TIF" and "IMG.XML"
are received.
APP.EXE IMG.TIF
APP.EXE IMG.XML
