 Command Cut
Instruction AreaThis box contains instructions and examples of how to use the command cuts.
Once created, these command cuts will show up in the Audio & Event Library on the Commands page.
COMMANDS:
#PLAY XXXXX
Have the On Air screen play the file# located after the #PLAY
#PLAY1000 will play audio cut 1000
----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
@MM:SS
If the command has the @ symbol as the first character it will be a Time Marker.
When calculating the schedule times, the items past this marker will begin calculating from the set time MM:SS
@20:00 will set a time marker for 20 minutes after the hour all items following this time will begin calculating after the 20 minute mark,
items will be based off this time, till we get to the next marker or the top of the next hour, whichever comes first.
----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
*BTSS
Have the On Air screen send the command located after the *BTSS the the active serial port.
*BTSS*1044 will send the Broadcast tools command *1044 out to the Broadcast Tools switcher.
----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
URL= Live internet audio
If you want to play a file from the internet, use the following format:
URL=http://www.radioforecast.com/spots/krajfmam.mp3 ending=2;The Weather
It will load and play the forecast and then start the next event 2 seconds
from the end of the weather forecast.
----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
URLVolume XX
Adjust the level of a hot internet audio stream by replacing XX a percentage from 1 to 99.
----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
StopURL
This will stop the URL= Command from playing.
----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
SignOn
This tells the DJB Radio where to start playing after the sign on time is reached.
If you do not use the SignOn command, it will start at the beginning of the hour.
----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
USEIOCONTROL XX
USEIOCONTROL XX where XX is the grid number between 0 and 99.
This will allow your to switch Satellite I/O controls to something other than the one used in the grid.
You can also label the command after a semi-colon(;): USEIOCONTROL 4;Switch to Dr. Laura.
USEIOCONTROL GRID will switch back to the hourly grid settings.
----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
^WAIT XXX
^WAIT120 will have the On Air screen pause 120 seconds after the ^WAIT
----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
Command Labels for the On-Air Screen
Since #PLAY2000/!9800/!9405/^WAIT120 is not a very attractive thing to have on your on-air screen,
you can label the command by using a semi-colon (;) followed by the label that you want on the screen.
IE:#PLAY2000/!9800/!9405/^WAIT120;Legal ID and CBS News
----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
Stacking Commands
You can put multiple commands on a single line using a slash (/).
#PLAY2000/!9800/!9405/^WAIT120
This will play cut number 2000, then turn all inputs off, then turn on relay 5, then wait 120 seconds.
If a Wait command is used it should be the last command in the stack and should not be used in combination with !9700 or !9701.
Any commands that follow the wait will be processed right away, not after the wait.
----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
!9XXX
Can be used to call one of the preconfigured commands in a stacking command.
Commands that can be used
!9700 calls the Play Next Command
!9701 calls the Plays the next event and puts the system in automation mode
!9996 calls the Jock Assist mode command
!9994 calls the Automation mode command
!9800 calls the Inputs Off Command
!9801 calls the Inputs On Command
!93XX calls the Relay Pulse Commands
!94XX calls the Relay ON Commands
!95XX calls the Relay OFF Commands
----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------

For example one could say ;Lower AM Power.
Another could say ;Take Meter Readings.
----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
