A general rxnet has a zero in the third column. Dedicated WinCue rxnets will have the IP address

of the WinCue prompter entered in the third column. These dedicated rxnets are reserved and

can only be used by the WinCue prompter of that address. WinCue can also use general rxnets

if none are dedicated.

Besides the entries in the body of the config file, there will need to be corresponding entries in the

appropriate host section of the /site/config file (see the AvStar Operations Manual for more details

on the config file and editing commands):

3.1.2 Adding Prompting Users

When WinCue accesses AvStar through an RxNet, it does so using an account and password. In

addition, it uses the destination of the account to guide it to the rundown to prompt. It’s possible

to set up one account that only accesses SHOW, for example, but it’s more elegant to set up

multiple prompting accounts, all of which have destinations pointing to different rundowns. If

that’s the tact you take, it’s still advisable to have one high-level access account.

To create multiple prompting accounts, all of which have destinations pointing to different

rundowns, in AvStar click Tools Options Users to bring up the Manage User Accounts

dialog box:
