Indexing Your Data
Use DataFinder instances to find your technical data on local computers and servers in
a global network or in the SystemLink file service.
DataFinder instances index, for example, folders with data harmonized by a Data Preprocessor instance and make this data available to an Analysis Automation instance. Apart from an Analysis Automation instance, other clients, like Data Navigation, DIAdem, or LabVIEW, communicate with a DataFinder instance in order to search the indexed data and load the search results. You can set up DataFinder instances to index either data in the SystemLink file service, or in search areas on the SystemLink server and on computers and servers outside the SystemLink environment. This enables users of Data Navigation to search the indexed files for relevant data matching their data-related tasks.
