Grass Valley iTX System v.2.6 - Manual (Page 143)

Configuring channels
In the track-configuration dialog, do the following to specify the default tracks.
• In the Available Tracks list, select one or more tracks; press Shift or Control while
clicking track names to select multiple tracks. Clicking Select All selects all tracks (while
clicking Clear All de-selects all tracks). Clicking Alpha causes the tracks to appear in
alphabetical order, or the standard order, in the Available Tracks list.
• Click Add to add the selected tracks to the Selected Tracks list.
• If you want to remove any track from the Selected Tracks list, select the track and click
Rem.
• If you want to change a track's position on the Timeline Display, select the track in the
Selected Tracks list; then click Up or Down.
You can also configure how you want the events to appear on the Timeline Display.
• Select Collapse Tracks to display all events on a single horizontal track.
• Ensure Collapse Tracks is not selected if you want events of different types to appear
on separate horizontal tracks.
Channel Config 2 – for playout, edit and scheduled-ingest channels
Automation Engine Active
You must select this option for a playout channel, so that iTX processes schedules in that
channel. It is not necessary to select the option for an edit channel.
Auto Cue After Live Event
When Auto Cue After Live Event is enabled, any clips that follow live events and whose start
times are within 20 seconds are automatically cued when an operator clicks ‘Take Next’ (in iTX
Desktop, Master Control or Studio Switcher).
Fixed Availability Windows
In the Event Editor, an operator can restrict the use of a sequence to a defined period called a
break window. This period may be fixed – between specified times on a specified date; or it
may be relative to the scheduled start time of the sequence.
