Searching the Help
To search for information in the Help, type a word or phrase in the Search box. When you enter a group of words, OR is inferred. You can use Boolean operators to refine your search.
Results returned are case insensitive. However, results ranking takes case into account and assigns higher scores to case matches. Therefore, a search for "cats" followed by a search for "Cats" would return the same number of Help topics, but the order in which the topics are listed would be different.
Search for | Example | Results |
---|---|---|
A single word | cat
|
Topics that contain the word "cat". You will also find its grammatical variations, such as "cats". |
A phrase. You can specify that the search results contain a specific phrase. |
"cat food" (quotation marks) |
Topics that contain the literal phrase "cat food" and all its grammatical variations. Without the quotation marks, the query is equivalent to specifying an OR operator, which finds topics with one of the individual words instead of the phrase. |
Search for | Operator | Example |
---|---|---|
Two or more words in the same topic |
|
|
Either word in a topic |
|
|
Topics that do not contain a specific word or phrase |
|
|
Topics that contain one string and do not contain another | ^ (caret) |
cat ^ mouse
|
A combination of search types | ( ) parentheses |

The config.ini file contains parameters for managing the running schedule of the scanner, the downloading schedule for the scanner, and for downloading a configuration file on a remote server. The parameters are as follows:
Configuration File Parameter | Description |
---|---|
Monday|Tuesday|Wednesday|Thursday Friday| Saturday| Sunday |
For each day of the week, enter the range of hours you want your scheduled event to run. If you specify multiple time intervals, use commas to separate each interval. For example: 10:00-12:00,14:00-18:00 Note The 24-hour clock is used. |
FrequencyHours |
Indicates how frequently the scheduled event occurs. Assume you want to use a weekly interval for your scheduled event. In this scenario, set the value to 168. If this parameter is set to 0, scheduling is disabled. Note This field is mandatory. |
RandomDelayMinutes |
Specifies a random delay to the start time for load balancing purposes. Assume that the scanner is scheduled to run at 9:00 and the random delay is 60 minutes. In this scenario, the scanner runs at a random point in time between 9:00 and 10:00. If this parameter is set to 0, no random delay is used. |
CommandLine |
Enter a command to run the scanner, to run a program that will download the config.ini file from a remote server, or to download the scanner.
|
ScannerFileName |
In the <LocalScannerPath> parameter, enter the full file path to the local computer where you want to store the scanner file. The scanner file name is changed from scan.tmp to the file name specified in this parameter. Note This parameter is mandatory. |
