Capture Services .
2. The K2 Capture Services utility dialog box is displayed. Click on the HotBin tab.
3. Enter the paths to the source directory and destination bin. If the source directory
does not currently exist, it will automatically be created.
4. Specify how often you want the folder checked for new files and the file deletion
age for files in the Success and Fail sub-directories , and click Apply .
5. If the source directory is not on the local K2 system, a User Account dialog box
displays. Enter the user information that you use to access the source directory. If
part of a domain, enter the domain name. Click
OK .
6. A success message displays. Click OK . The HotBin service (Grass Valley
File-Import Watcher) will keep running after you exit.
The HotBin service immediately checks the source directory for files. If files are
present, the HotBin service moves them to the Archive sub-directory. It does not
import the files into the destination bin on the K2 system.
7. Place files in the source directory to trigger the Hot Bin import processes.
