Advanced scan options

param

param

Check file contents (slow)

Check file field if DNC-Max should not rely on the file time stamps to detect when a file has been updated.

Scanning option used by the Directory Synchronizer when scanning the CNC

param

Use 'Smart Monitoring' on CNC

Check this field to enable 'Smart Monitoring' on the directories located on the CNC machine. When smart monitoring is enabled, DNC-Max will detect new files within seconds.

Smart monitoring does not work with some network file systems and CNC controls, and some third party applications might prevent DNC-Max from using the smart monitoring facility.

param

Check file contents (slow)

Check file field if DNC-Max should not rely on the file time stamps to detect when a file has been updated.

When this option is checked DNC-Max will scan the entire file to check if it has been updated. This will generate a lot of disk activity, and should only be activated if DNC-Max fails to detect file updates otherwise!

param

CNC Scan Interval (min)

Use this field to specify the scanning interval in minutes.

When using the smart monitoring feature you can set this to a high value, because all changes are then detected immediately, and the rescan is only used to ensure that no updates were missed due to network errors etc.

Example: If you specify 10 in this field, all directories will be scanned every 10 minutes.
