3.1.11. Activating the Placeholder Pane

In the Placeholder group box of the Configuration tab you can enable or disable the display
of the Placeholder pane in the IPMOSBrowser. The Placeholder pane allows a user to
drag placeholders for clips to stories in a rundown in the NCS system.

By default, the Placeholder pane is disabled. No check boxes are selected.

To activate the Placeholder pane in the IPMOSBrowser, select one or both of the check
boxes in the Placeholder group box.

If you only select the Name check box, the Placeholder pane will just display a Name
field. If the user then drags a placeholder in the NCS rundown, then the
IPMOSBrowser will take the name of the MOS object, i.e. clip or edit, as VarID.

If you select the VarID check box, the Name check box is automatically selected and
made unavailable. The Placeholder pane in the IPMOSBrowser will display a Name
and VarID field.

3.2.

Opening Ports in the Firewall

The following ports need to be opened on the firewall of the NCS client PCs for the
IPMOSBrowser and the MOS ActiveX Player to operate:

for the IPMOSBrowser: TCP port 31016

for the MOS ActiveX Player: TCP port 445

The IPMOSBrowser uses the IPDirector API protocol. The MOS ActiveX Player uses the
CIFS protocol.
