for each one. (You cannot create a favorite of a sub-folder that has been nested
under another sub-folder.)

Adding a repository

Prerequisite:

At least one K2 system must have been added as a server in the K2 Dyno PA
application.

If adding a filesystem repository, the filesystem requires a network share of the
folder or drive using the device that hosts the drive. This network share must be
accessible from the PC that runs the Dyno Production Assistant platform service.

If the filesystem repository is a USB drive, the drive must be UNC mountable from
the machine running the Dyno PA platform service.

To add a repository, follow these steps:

A K2 Dyno PA repository can be used to transfer, import or export assets. Repositories
can be used as a shortcut to a location on the network where assets can be transferred
to or transferred from. If you delete a repository from Dyno PA, the shortcut is deleted;
the assets in the repository itself are not affected.

1. In the Navigation pane, right-click and select

Add Repository

.

2. Enter the name of the new repository.

3. If desired, enter a description of the repository.

4. Select the type:

K2/Summit

a) Use the Host drop-down list to select the K2 system.
b) Click the

...

button and navigate to the desired bin for the repository.

c) Click

OK

.

The new repository appears in the Navigator pane.

File System

a) Enter the name or IP address of the repository host machine.
b) Enter the main UNC share mount point (the network share name).
c) To determine the naming convention for the exported file name, check the box

next to the desired Naming Conventions:

Use Dyno Keywords in Export Filename: the Dyno Keywords appear as part
of the name in the exported file.

Use Asset Marks In/Out in Export Filename: Dyno PA puts Dyno marks in the
filename itself, for example: 10:15:25:20-10:22:40:15-S00001.Mov. You can
then export the file with this new filename.

Restrict Repository Views to Known File Types: Checking this box ensures
that your view is not cluttered with extraneous file types that are not related to
