2.1 INTRODUCTION

Keywords are an essential element to the IP Director system,
bridging the gap between the XT servers and a conventional
database by allowing the user to search for material using
keywords which relate to the media rather than searching by
storage locations.

Keywords allow you to perform searches in logs or clips in a
unified manner. Every user can thus be certain that the media
and logs are indexed in a structured manner so as to provide
accurate search results.

This application provides tools to add data to the database. It

allows the addition of individual words, importation of existing
Keyword Grids of up to 300 keywords, or the importation of 3

r d

party text data into the IP Director database. Using Keyword
Management tools it is possible to create and edit Keyword
Grids, Keyword Dictionaries and also to import and export

keyword files between different IP Director installations.
Keyword files made on an XT Server are also importable.
