Entering Metadata

Metadata may be entered into a single FS-5 or simultaneously into multiple FS-5s.

These procedures assume that there is a ready to use template, such as the FCP Example or AVID MXF that are supplied with the FS-5. And that it is not necessary to modify or create a new template.

The FS-5 provides the ability to simultaneously log the same metadata to multiple FS-5s located on the same network.

To log metadata onto multiple FS-5s:

1.Begin by mounting at least two FS-5 2.0 units on a network.

2.Select one of the FS-5s to be the host.

3.Log on to the host and go to its Entry page.

4.Select the metadata template to use from the Default Template dropdown list.

5.Click the ADD button.

The Link Units workspace expands to show link parameters for the first client FS-5.

Notice that the Template option is permanently check- marked. Any time the host FS-5 links to another unit, it transfers the currently selected template to the client, regardless if the other link options are selected or not.

6.Enter the IP address for the client FS-5.
