Working with Schedules
Adding secondary events to the schedule
• Graphic: displays a animated image (GMJ format) over the primary event. The J2K-
based graphic is decoded by an ADV212 chip and streamed from the SSD on the
associated device’s SSP-3801 card. Graphics are designed to load instantly, can be of
any size, and can use transparency, but must be full-screen as the ADV212 does not
support rasters sized smaller than the screen.
• Audio Clip: plays an audio-only or voiceover event (WAV format) stored in the media
cache either as a foreground or background layer while a primary event occurs.
• GPO: allows access to the GPIO pins on the associated device’s SSP-3801 card to trigger
external hardware downstream.
• VANC: adds a Vertical Ancillary Data Space (VANC) file that embeds data in a video
event, which is not displayed within the screen’s viewing area.
• Update: schedules an SSP-3801 card software upgrade.
