OLYMPUS Metadata Import Function

What is Metadata Import Function?
  
The Metadata Import Function (MIF) of DS-7000/3500 allows the recorder to display a list of metadata on the device and embed the selected metadata in the file header of dictation. The metadata can be pushed from your application to the DS-7000/3500 by simply creating a XML file and copying it to the System folder in the device. During the dictation procedure, the author can chose a particular metadata from the list and associate the selected metadata with the dictation file. Since the selected metadata is stored in the file header, your application can obtain the metadata by using Olympus File Download SDK.
 
 What are the main features of Metadata Import Function?
 
The metadata can be transferred to the DS-7000/3500 with a XML file and enable the DS-700/3500 to run automatically in MIF mode. This will enable users to associate metadata with the dictation file in the device. By utilizing MIF software partners can provide streamline dictation and transcription workflow for the DS-7000/3500 users.
 
 How does MIF benefit the end-user?
  1. It improves reliability of final document by associating demographic information (such as Name, DOB...) with dictations.
  2. It saves time by eliminating the need to manually input demographic information in the dictation files or final documents.
  3. Simplify dictation and transcription process and minimize human errors.
  
In order to use MIF with the DS-7000/3500 Digital Voice Recorders you must have the Firmware version 1.10 or later which is posted on the dealers Olympus Pro Portal on the Technical Support page under Firmware Downloads.
