NewTek TriCaster Advanced Edition User Guide - Manual (Page 294)

Since DataLink falls into the general realm of automation and also has access to external sources, complete
coverage of its features and capabilities is found in the companion Automation and Integration Guide included
with this product; but we’ll mention a few highlights as we go along in this manual as well.
Hint: If not today, we urge you to make definite plans to read the DataLink chapter in the Automation and
Integration Guide. Without exaggeration, DataLink is a game-changer. It can save you a great deal of time,
prevent embarassing and potentially costly mistakes, and lift your productions to new heights.
The Manage group link labeled Configure Datalink Keys opens a dialog that allows you to pre-assign values
to three special DataLink keys. These session keys serve as the default first and second line text inserts and
image used by many of the supplied template title pages. (By taking a moment to populate these keys with,
for example, a company name, motto, and logo, you will find much of the included graphic content ready to
use for a given production without ever having to type another line.)
