Scan Responses Created by Device Setup Assistant
One or two scan responses are created when you configure the scan settings for a
device with Device Setup Assistant in Final Cut Server System Preferences:

 Device Scan [Full Scan]: This is created when you configure a full scan in Device Setup

Assistant. This response uses the Purge setting from the Scan Mode pop-up menu
with a Recursion Limit setting of 0 (unlimited subfolder access).

 Device Scan [Add Only]: This is created when you configure an add only scan in

Device Setup Assistant. This response uses the Add Only setting from the Scan Mode
pop-up menu with a Recursion Limit setting of 0.

About Scan Productions

The scan productions response allows you to automate more of your workflow process
for adding assets and productions to the Final Cut Server catalog.

Most of the settings for a scan production response are the same as for a scan
response. The difference is a section that allows you to specify production settings.

To access the scan production response settings:

1

Click the Create button in the Administration window’s Responses pane to create a
new response.

2

Choose Scan Productions from the Response Action pop-up menu.

The Production Scan pane of the Response window contains settings that define what
is being scanned, the metadata that is applied to the items found by the scan,
production metadata settings, and the actual scan mode and settings.

Click Production Scan to

show the Production

Scan pane.
