Chapter 4 Configuring Aurora Playout

Configuring the Remote Display Unit (RDU)

A Remote Display Unit (RDU) lets you see the clips playing on each channel and the
status of each clip. The RDU usually resides in the control room so that operators can
monitor playback status during a broadcast. There are two different RDUs you can use
with Aurora Playout: RDU 1510 or TSI 1000.
