The default ‘trigger’ for a new moving rule is the common scan time. The following ‘triggers’ are extra available for each moving rule:

Rule Scan Time
Scheduled Events
Change Notify (Win32)

1) Rule Scan Time

Disable Common and Moving Rule Scan Time: This will disable the scan time function for the selected moving rule. Useful if you only want to use Scheduled Events.
Use Moving Rule Scan Time: Use a different scan time for each moving rule.
The moving rule scan time is used by the selected moving rule only. If 'Use Moving Rule Scan Time' is enabled then the common scan time is ignored (for the selected moving rule).
Thread Priority: Priority indicates how much preference the thread gets when the operating system schedules CPU time among all the threads in your application. Use a high priority thread to handle time critical tasks, and a low priority thread to perform other tasks.

2) Scheduled Events

Use Scheduled Events: Setup scheduled event(s) to trigger the moving rule.

3) Change Notify

Use Change Notify (Win32): Use the OS change notify event to trigger the moving rule. Only for WIN32 input source.

Execute selected rule now. The selected rule must be enabled. The button is only visible if the rule is enabled.

There’s a common time schedule available in the Lite version. In the full version there’s also a time schedule for each moving rule. The common time schedule is common for all moving rules.

Enable days not available in the Time Schedule list: Days not available in the Time Schedule list are by default disabled.

Error event memory: Trigger error events only once for the same file.
Trigger mail events after scan: Trigger mail events after scan instead of for each file. When this option is enabled only mail parameter %FN (Filename) can be used.

Output Debug: Output debug information for the selected Limagito thread. This gives you full debug capability when using a Win32 debug monitor (DebugView, freeware at http://technet.microsoft.com/en-us/sysinternals/default.aspx ).
Enable Log: Enable logging to file for the selected thread (moving rule).
Setup Log: Setup log options for the selected Limagito thread.

Logging Level 1-10: Increase the log level if you need more ‘debug’ information (default 1). Don't use level 10 during production, only for testing.

Log Size: Set the maximum size for the log file.
Log History Count: If log size is reached then the .log file will be renamed to .001. With this option you can set the amount of history files.
History Log Filter: You can add more then one Log Filter each separated by ';' ( i.e. error;exception ). This will limit the information in the History Log.
RunTime Log Filter: You can add more then one RunTime Log Filter each separated by ';' ( i.e. error;exception ). This will limit the information in the RunTime Log.

Log Start Tag(s):
Log Stop Tag(s):
Log Prefix Tag:

Log Filename: Select the filename for the log file.
Save: Save log setup.

Input Ftp, Stay Connected: Do not disconnect between scans.

First example

In the first example Limagito is going to move the input file to a temp directory if this file exists in the destination directory. We are using the “Execute Command if destination file exists” option. The Application field is empty. This depends on what you are going to execute. We are using a command line application.

Command: cmd /c move %ID%FN c:\temp

cmd /c Carries out the command and then terminates

move Moves files and renames files and directories.

%ID%FN Source (Input directory + filename)

c:\temp Destination

Input files are zipped into the subfolder ‘zipped’. The extention .zip is added to the original filename.

Second example

In this example Limagito is going to zip the input file using the command line version of 7zip. (7za.exe download at http://www.7-zip.org). We are going to execute the command before the copy function. The Application field is empty. This depends on what you are going to execute. We are using a command line application.

Command: 7za.exe a %ID\Zipped\%FN.zip %ID%FN

7za.exe 7Zip Command line exe file

a 7Zip archive command

%ID\Zipped\%FN.zip Destination, Zipped filename (Destination directory + filename)

%ID%FN Source, Unzipped filename (Input directory + filename)

Input files are zipped into the subfolder ‘zipped’. The extention .zip is added to the original filename.
