5.4 Retail Search
The local retail search feature is provided for customers who wish to search video for specific products
from the front panel of the Vista Triplex
2
CDR/DVD. The customer can select from predefined product
names from predefined categories. To use this feature you must create a text file containing the
categories (product types) and product names (sub levels) that you want to search. This file is then
uploaded to the Vista Triplex
2
CDR/DVD via the web interface.
Text File Format
To create a retail search text file open Notepad or any other simple text editor. The file must be saved as
a text only file. The meta-character # is used in this text file to identify a category. All strings below a
category are interpreted as sub levels of that category until another category appears. The creator of the
retail text file is responsible for putting the categories and sub levels into correct order. The Vista Triplex
2
CDR/DVD will not sort the strings. A category has to have at least one sub level. The customer has to
store this file as a .txt file named retail_search.txt.
Example:
Uploading/Downloading the retail_search .txt File
