Bypass filter settings

This filter bypasses the StreamServer, and sends the input data directly to a designated output connector. The filter settings are described in the table below.

Start in bypass	If selected, all input received between StreamServer start-up and the first Bypass off trigger is sent to the Bypass connector.
Bypass connector	The name of the output connector to send the input data to.
Initial time-out	N/A
Bypass time-out	Time-out (seconds). Overrides the ordinary connector time-out
Bypass on	Sequence in input data that activates the bypass filter. For example: #bypassON
Remove (bypass on)	Select whether to remove the Bypass on sequence from output data.
Bypass off	Sequence in input data that deactivates bypass mode. For example: #bypassOFF
Remove (bypass off)	Select whether to remove the Bypass off sequence from output data.
Append output to job	Allows the output sent to the bypass connector to be treated as a unit. For example, if the bypass connector is a File connector, the output will end up in the same file.
Overlay resource	Optional overlay to include in the output.
Overlay select	Sequence in input data that indicates “here comes an overlay”. For example: #ovl
Remove (overlay select)	Select whether to remove the Overlay select sequence from output data.
Overlay trigger	Sequence in input data that indicates the end of the overlay file name. For example: ##
Remove (overlay trigger)	Select whether to remove the Overlay trigger sequence from output data.
