Spot Search

You can launch a Spot Search from the Quick Button bar at the top

of the Monitor or select File > Spot Search. Within this window you can
either search for the history of a specific spot (previous 14 days) or it’s
scheduled status (future 14 days). To generate a spot search report,
first select whether you are looking for the history of a spot or it’s future
schedule. Then select the spot ID from the drop down menu. This drop
down menu contains all of the spots located in the MVL.

The data is sorted by the Tag ID number in ascending order. The

columns are:

Spot Length: The length of the spot (Formatted as HH:MM:SS)

Scheduled Date: The date the spot is scheduled if you are viewing Scheduled or the

date the spot ran if you are viewing the spot history.

First Air Time: The first air time is the first time in the schedule day that the spot
played.

depending upon your search criteria.
