Schedule Bulletin

The Schedule Bulletin screen allows you to schedule a group of bulletins onto one or more playlists.  The options you are given on this screen depends upon your privileges, as established by the system administrator.

 

The first step is scheduling a group of bulletins is to pick at least one playlist from the list.  

 

You can pick Alert mode OR non-Alert mode but not both.

 

Alert mode will only be given as an option IF you have the privileges for managing alerts.

 

 

Title

The group title is inherited from the bulletins.  You can only change the title if the group has more than one bulletin.

 

 

You can choose to start showing the bulletin Today for a specific amount of time OR you can choose a start and end date and time.  Normally the start and stop dates and times are figured for each display, but if you check Override Local Time Zones then only the central AxisTV server's time will be used.

 

 

You can choose to display the bulletin all day long OR from specific start to stop times each day.  Normally the start and stop dates and times are figured for each display, but if you check Override Local Time Zones then only the central AxisTV server's time will be used.

 

 

You can control the amount of time that each bulletin is displayed by letting the system calculate a pace based on the amount of text OR by specifying a number of seconds yourself.  The calculated pace is based on the number of words per second specified in the owning Aspect Ratio.  The system administrator can adjust this value.

 

 

If you do not wish to schedule the bulletin at this time you can click Cancel.  The bulletin is already saved and is available via My Bulletins.  If you do want to schedule the bulletin given your settings then click Finished.
