imageRUNNER ADVANCE allows transferring received FAX documents to various destinations. Configure transfer settings by registering the destination and transfer conditions. You can specify a shared folder on the network as the destination. For the details of transfer settings, see the e-manual of imageRUNNER ADVANCE.
imageRUNNER ADVANCE Desktop monitors specified folders and transfers any data added to them to specified destinations. This transfer source folder is called a hot folder.
imageRUNNER ADVANCE Desktop monitors the hot folder once in every 60 seconds and when documents have been added to the hot folder, they are transferred to the destination in the following cases:
When [Refresh] is performed in Desktop Browser
When the [Hot Folder List] dialog box is closed in Desktop Browser
When [Create Personal Button] or [Personal Button Settings] is performed in Desktop Browser
You can configure up to 5 hot folders.
When using a network folder (file server) as a hot folder, it is required that the server can be connected automatically. Therefore, you need to log into the same domain as the server (or a trusted domain) in advance, or save the password when you access the server first time.
Note that subfolders of a hot folder are not monitored and copying a folder to the hot folder does not trigger transfer.
You can use Desktop Monitor to monitor the destination folders of hot folders. By configuring folders to monitor with imageRUNNER ADVANCE Desktop and enabling notification for new documents, the new document notification icon and window appear when a document is transferred from a hot folder to the destination folder.
 (New Document) |
This is displayed in the task tray when there is a new document.

The new document notification window is displayed for 10 seconds.
Double-clicking the new document notification icon [Log List] in the new document notification window, the [Log List] window is displayed. On the [Log List] dialog box, double-click an entry in the new document list to launch Desktop Browser and display the items in the folder where a new document exists in the file list view pane.
For more information on how to configure folders to monitor and Desktop Monitor, see the e-manual of imageRUNNER ADVANCE Desktop.
If you register an e-mail address with the [Forwarding Done Notice] check box selected while defining the transfer condition with imageRUNNER ADVANCE, an e-mail notifying of transfer completion will be sent every time transfer completes.
If you select [Notice Only for Errors], an e-mail will be sent only when transfer fails.
You can cancel hot folder specification by selecting an unnecessary hot folder in the [Hot Folder List] dialog box and clicking [Delete]. Canceling hot folder specification does not delete the transfer source folder.

You cannot edit a hot folder if it contains a document which has not been transferred to the library.
