The Up/Down timer configuration is configured by using the following playlist script command…
--------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
cmd udt_param(“a timer b direction xx min yy sec”)
cmd udt_reload(“z”)
where
- “a” is the timer that is the timer that is being set. This can be either 1 (timer 1) or 2 (timer 2).
- “b” is the timer direction. This can be either 2 (up) or 1 (down). Down is the default.
- “xx” is the minute parameter for the time of the timer element. For a down timer this will be the time that
the timer will start from. For an up timer this will be the time that the timer finishes.
- “yy” is the seconds parameter for the time of the timer element. If there are no seconds then this should
be set to 00.
- “z” is the timer that is to be initialized to the specified parameters.
--------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
In either case (up or down direction) the timer will not go off-air automatically when the timer either
reaches 00:00 or the end time specified. A reload is always required to apply the timer parameters. A
reload will also reset the timer to the initial time parameter specified.
9.6.1.1. Example 1 Timer 1, Up Timer, 14 minutes 25 seconds
For this, the playlist to initialize the timer with these parameters would be as follows…
--------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
# VSSL PLAYLIST
cmd udt_param(“1 timer 2 direction 14 min 25 sec”)
cmd udt_reload(“1”)
--------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
9.6.1.2. Example 2 Timer 2, Down Timer, 30 minutes 00 seconds
--------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
# VSSL PLAYLIST
cmd udt_param(“2 timer 1 direction 30 min 00 sec”)
cmd udt_reload(“2”)
