Help on the Search Engine

In order to make a simple search request, enter the desired word or the group of words into the field provided and click "Find". This gives you a list of websites that contain one or more of the entered words.

   
 

Efficient Search Strategies

For a more efficient search request proceed as follows:
  1. Be precise. Use unambiguous terms or add refining terms. For example, a search for MULTIPROG produces too many hits. If you search for MULTIPROG, explicitly enter uk5 12ac.
  2. Add synonyms for your search terms. If your search request has no hits or only a few, try again with a synonym. For example, try MULTIPROG manual instead of MULTIPROG instructions.
  3. Check the spelling. A typing error or misspelling may change search results.
  4. Learn from the results. If your search request does not show the exact result you wanted, go over the results again. Perhaps you will find a new search item.
 
   
 

Improving Search Items

Search for defined word combinations:
Use quotation marks (" ") for the desired group of words. A search for certain word combinations can essentially reduce the number of results. For example, you can enter
  • "new products"

The search results shown will contain the word combination  "new products".

Including and excluding words:
For a limitation of search results you can include or exclude terms using special characters.

& two terms are logically ANDed. A & B finds all pages containing A AND B.

  • multiprog & safety

| two terms are logically ORed.
A | B finds all pages containing in A OR B.

  • multiprog | safety

~ excludes a word from the search. A search for ~A finds all pages that do include NOT A.

  • multiprog ~suite

( ) Use brackets to group complex boolean expressions. (A | B) & ~C finds pages that contain either A OR B but not C (AND NOT C).

  • (multiprog | safety) & ~suite
