The quality of restoring to normal output depends on the jipOff template. If incomplete, or not defined
at all, normal output cannot be restored.
To create JIP-templates:
 In Channel Composer, define the templates and formats for the JIP channel design.
o Make sure these templates use dedicated (player) objects.
o Also note that JIP Objects should be placed on higher layers (this can be checked in
the Channel Composer Objects window) than the Objects used in the templates for
normal playout.
 Create a jipOff template that stops all the players used in the JIP-templates. Note that the
name for this template (jipOff) is fixed.
 Export and activate the Channel Pack to both the primary Channel (broadcast set 0) and the
JIP Channel (broadcast set 4). Note that the normal and JIP Playlists use the same Channel
Pack. You can also activate the Pack in a later stage.
4.5 Simulcast
To allow for Channel differences in a simulcast setup, different jipOff templates can be defined for
each of the two Channels by adding a channel number suffix to the template name as shown below:
Template name
Description
jipOff Automatically triggered when returning to normal output. Works for any Channel.
Only used when no dedicated channel specific template could be found.
jipOff-chan0 Automatically triggered when returning to normal output on the first channel. If
not found, template jipOff is used instead.
jipOff-chan1 Automatically triggered when returning to normal output on the second channel.
If not found, template jipOff is used instead.
4.6 Format Rules
To make sure only JIP-templates and formats are used in the JIP Channel, you can define a Format
Rule that replaces normal formats with JIP-formats for the JIP Channel.
Example Rule activated for the JIP Channel: IF Format = Clip THEN replace the Clip-format with the
JIP-Clip-format.
For more information on Format Rules, please refer to the Format Control User Manual.
