10.3 Application Handling
10.3.1 Configuration for Automation Control
Channels must be assigned to the automation system in the console con-
figuration in order to be controlled by an external CAB system.
AUTOMATION CONFIG. is reached from the SYSTEM CONFIG. page:
The AUTOMATION CONFIG. page allows each channel to be assigned to
the CAB system.
Please note that these channels' labels must be named “DIGI 1” through
“DIGI 3”. Normally three channels are used with the CAB system; a fourth
“DIGI 4” channel is possible, but unusual.
10.3.2 Communication Time-out
If no valid telegram is received from the CAB within approx. 30 seconds,
the OnAir 2000M2 assumes that the communication is interrupted.
In this case it stops sending telegrams and the following actions are per-
formed:
• All channels are deselected;
• The channel screens are re-drawn (name of selected input source will be
indicated again) which might have been overwritten;
• A warning: “Communication to Broadcast Automation lost!” is dis-
played.
After the next or first telegram from the CAB, communication will be re-
established.
The information: “Communication to Broadcast Automation established!”
is generated.
