Sharing Configuration Between Scanners

Can I install a scanner on a secondary server and have it share the configuration of another scanner?

• In the GWAVA Management console navigate to you server. 
  
• Under your server expand the “Wizards” folder and click on “Install/create new scanner”. 
  
• On the first screen you will select the type of scanner you want to create and click continue.

 

 

• Read through the information screen, and press continue.

 

 

 

 

 

• Select a name for the new scanner that you are joining. 
  
• Type in the full path to the GWIA startup file, and the GWIA path (folder you want to scan with your new scanner).
  
• Click continue.

 

 

 

• On this screen it is important to check the check box at the top of the screen that says:
• Your GWAVA system already has one or more scanners configured.
  
• Choose this option to share an existing scanner configuration

 

 

After you check the check box listed above the screen will change to appear as below:

In the drop down box select the existing scanner that you would like to join the new scanner to.

 

 

• Confirm your settings and click install.

 

 

• Congratulations you new scanner is ready!

 

 

Note:  When you join a new scanner it will not share any of the spam training. For instruction on how to copy dictionaries see the knowledge base article
