<P STYLE="margin-bottom: 0cm"><FONT FACE="Tahoma, sans-serif">RealtimeSync's
primary function is to trigger synchronization immediately after
files in a source directory have changed. However its implementation
is much more flexible to cover an even broader range of use: A list
of directories provided by the user is monitored for changes.
Whenever a file within these directories or sub directories is
modified OR the directory becomes available (e. g. insert of a
USB-stick), RealtimeSync responds by executing the user-specified
command line.</FONT></P>

<P STYLE="margin-bottom: 0cm"><FONT FACE="Tahoma, sans-serif">First
start up RealtimeSync.exe located in FreeFileSync's installation
directory. Then specify all directories that shall be monitored.
Instead of doing this manually you can simply import a </FONT><FONT FACE="Courier New, monospace">*.ffs_batch</FONT>
<FONT FACE="Tahoma, sans-serif">file via </FONT><FONT FACE="Tahoma, sans-serif"><I>Menu
-> File -> Load configuration</I></FONT><FONT FACE="Tahoma, sans-serif">.
This not only extracts all directories relevant for synchronization
but also sets up the command-line to execute the </FONT><FONT FACE="Courier New, monospace">*.ffs_batch</FONT>
<FONT FACE="Tahoma, sans-serif">file each time changes are detected.
Now press "</FONT><FONT FACE="Tahoma, sans-serif"><I>Start</I></FONT><FONT FACE="Tahoma, sans-serif">"

<P STYLE="margin-bottom: 0cm"><FONT FACE="Tahoma, sans-serif">Assume
you have multiple(!) USB sticks that contain data you want to
automatically synchronize in two-way mode whenever you insert one of
the sticks into the PC. In order to be on the safe side, you decide
to setup FreeFileSync batch jobs (</FONT><FONT FACE="Courier New, monospace">*.ffs_batch</FONT><FONT FACE="Tahoma, sans-serif">)
using </FONT><FONT FACE="Tahoma, sans-serif"><I><Automatic></I></FONT>
<FONT FACE="Tahoma, sans-serif">mode so that conflicts, for example
files modified on both sides, are detected avoiding data loss. Save
the relevant configuration on each USB stick's root directory to have
it called when the stick is mounted. Then configure RealtimeSync
analog to the following:</FONT></P>

<P STYLE="margin-bottom: 0cm"><FONT FACE="Tahoma, sans-serif">Whenever
directory "</FONT><FONT FACE="Courier New, monospace">H:\Data</FONT><FONT FACE="Tahoma, sans-serif">"
becomes available, the command-line executes and starts the batch job
whose configuration is located on the stick. Furthermore it also
starts the batch job each time files are modified within "</FONT><FONT FACE="Courier New, monospace">H:\Data</FONT><FONT FACE="Tahoma, sans-serif">".

<P STYLE="margin-bottom: 0cm"><BR>

<P STYLE="margin-bottom: 0cm"><FONT FACE="Tahoma, sans-serif">For
additional convenience it might be nice if the batch job remains
silent if synchronization completes successfully, otherwise shows
FreeFileSync's GUI dialog when errors occurred. Therefore create two
configurations, one silent-mode batch to be called by default and one
<FONT FACE="Courier New, monospace">*.ffs_gui</FONT> to be called
when former fails. Then replace the command-line to simply execute a
batch file similar to this one:</FONT></P>
