Harris ADC Device Server User’s Guide
Configuration Manager 2-13
Skip Bad Events: Enables the list to skip bad events. A “bad” event is an event that is
unable to play, such as unavailable media or an event that causes an error during
transmission (due to a tape jam or tape running short, etc.). If consecutive bad events are
encountered, only the first bad event is skipped. In order to skip the following events you
must use the Play button in the Control Panel. If this option is disabled, the list stops
running when a bad event is encountered. To restart the list if this occurs, cut the bad
event from the list and press Play. Default is enabled.
Station ID On Skip: When this option is enabled and a Skip command is issued, the system
automatically switches to the Logo input (the Logo input is configured in the Device Server
through the switcher’s device parameters. Default is disabled.
Release Tension When Cued: Places tape events into tension release when they are cued. The
events are readied at the Standby On time before they are due to roll. Default is disabled.
Timed List: Enables the list to play Hard Start events at their specified start times. Default
is enabled.
Update On-Air Time: Aafter each event plays, the system updates the event’s time to the
actual time that the event was transmitted. This information is also written to the As-Run
Log (if logging is enabled). Default is enabled.
Auto Ripple Times: The system recalculates the projected start times for the events in the list
dynamically during playout (up to the first hard start event encountered) and updates the
event times accordingly. The calculation assumes that the Duration field for up-counting
events is accurately set. Default is disabled.
Te n si on A f te r U p C ou nt e r : The next Standby On time (in seconds) worth of events that
follow an up-count event are tensioned on. If this option is disabled, the events are tension
released and the next event may only be tensioned on manually by pressing Ready in the
Control Panel. Default is disabled.
Thread After Break: Controls whether or not events are threaded following a break. If this
parameter is disabled, no events are threaded after the break. The events must then be
individually threaded once the list reaches the break, or the Program Run button must be
pressed after the break event is reached. Default is enabled.
Keep List Threaded: This option keeps as many devices threaded as possible, at all times. If
an event is inserted into the list to be played, the event is immediately cued and
subsequent events unthreaded as necessary. When enabled, thread time is not used.
When disabled, events are cued only within the thread times. Default is disabled.
