Map a graphics-script template to a graphics script
In a schedule that is in the format defined by the iTX Import Protocol, graphics events may
feature graphics-script templates. To enable iTX to play out such events, you need to map the
templates to graphics scripts in the iTX system.
After selecting a playout channel, perform this procedure for each graphics-script template that
appears in imported schedules.
1.
Select GFX on the Schedule Import Configuration panel.
2.
Click Create.
iTX opens the Enter Template Name/Number dialog.
3.
In the Name box, enter the name or number of the graphics-script template as it appears
in imported schedules.
For example, enter "Breaking News" for the graphics script in this schedule entry:
ITEM
clip GFX
data Breaking News|1:Live Report|
...
end
4.
Click OK to close the dialog.
iTX opens PinPoint, the iTX search tool.
5.
Use PinPoint to select a graphics script from the iTX System Database.
When you close PinPoint, iTX displays the template name or number in the Template box
and the name of the graphics-script in the CG Page box.
The Save button flashes; this is to show there are unsaved changes.
6.
Click Save to save the graphics-script mapping.
iTX associates the graphics-script template with the graphics script.
