ARM Rules

Previous  Top  Next

ARM stands for Accept, Reject or Maybe, and refers to the ability to confirm each image as it is reviewed.

Accept

Reject

Maybe

When a photograph is taken TetherPro will automatically transfer it back to your PC and add it to the image queue.

Images are taken from the queue one at a time and presented to the Photographer to confirm as either "Accept", "Reject" or "Maybe". On this selection the image is processed in accordance with the current Group's rules.

Each Rule is split into two commands, firstly where to move the image to and secondly how to rename the image.

Move options are :-

Leave it in the Root Folder

Move it to the Special Folder

Move it into a folder named the same as the Group

Delete it straight away

Rename options are :-

Leave it as Original

Change it to a Sequential Number

Use the Special String

Use the Original Name appended with the Special String

Use the Original Name prefixed with the Special String

Use the Group Name appended with the Special String

Use the Group Name prefixed with the Special String

Use the Session Name appended with the Special String

Use the Session Name prefixed with the Special String

Use the Original Name appended with a Sequential Number

Use the Original Name prefixed with a Sequential Number

Use the Group Name appended with a Sequential Number

Use the Group Name prefixed with a Sequential Number

Use the Session Name appended with a Sequential Number

Use the Session Name prefixed with a Sequential Number

Use a Sequential Number appended with the Special String

Use this Special String appended with a Sequential Number

Use a Sequential Number, appended with Group Name and end with Special String

Use Group Name, append with Special String and end with Sequential Number

Use Special String, append with Group Name and end with Sequential Number

NB. "Special String" is defined by the user.

NB: "Sequential Number" is defined by the user with the following format. The number of characters defines the length of the number, ie, 00000 will always add 5 digits regardless of the current number. ie, if it is the first photograph the number will be 00001. The actual value of the number defines the starting value. ie, 00100 will start at 100.
