FIELD DESCRIPTION
Preroll Indicates amount of unwanted video (black, etc.) at the beginning of the
program. “Setup” and “Preroll” are added together and then subtracted from
“Time” to get “Start,” which is the time of the device command.
For a typical VCR or DVD event, the time progression is as follows:
1. At “Start,” a play command is issued.
2. The event waits for “Setup” and “Preroll” to complete before performing
the initial switch. “Start” is not included in the time block used for
vertical positioning.
For a typical DVply event the time progression is as follows:
1. At “Start” a cue command is issued.
2. The event waits for “Setup” to complete and then issues a play
command.
3. The event then waits for “Preroll” to complete before performing the
initial switch. “Start” is not included in the time block used for vertical
positioning.
Length Length of the program block, the time between initial and ending switches, if
any, and the time from “Time” to “End” where ending actions occur.
Reset Time the device is busy and unavailable for scheduling after the end of the
block (“End”), usually due to “Rewind” time.
Start CMD Device command that occurs at “Start” (usually “Play” or “Cue/Play” for
DVply controlled devices).
End CMD Device command that occurs at “End,” (usually “Stop” or “Rewind”).
Fallback Indicates the input that is switched to the output at “End,” if any. Back to
back events have the “End” time of the first event equal the “Time” of the
second event. This puts the first event’s fallback switch at the same time as
the second event’s initial switch. If this occurs, the NET Series Controller
cancels the fallback switch.
Start Indicates time of the initial device command, found by subtracting “Setup”
plus “Preroll” from “Time.”
End Indicates end of the Program block. It is the time of ending device command
and fallback switch, if any. It is calculated by adding “Length” to “Time.”
Print Determines if the event will be included in a print operation.
Export Determines if the event will be included in an export operation.
