About the Split Break palette
A split break enables you to schedule playout of regional schedule events, such as commercial
breaks, on regional playout channels. For more information, see "About regional channels",
page 98.
In the selection pane of the Split Break palette, you select the regional channels you want to
play out events during a split break.
Note:
• You can set a regional channel to play out any selected schedule event. More details , page
99.
Adding a split break to a schedule
You add a split break to a schedule by dragging the split-break insertion bar from the Split
Break palette and dropping it into the Schedule Grid; you drop it onto the event you want it to
immediately follow. iTX creates a primary event for the split break and a blank sequence for
each selected regional channel; the sequences are secondary events associated with the split
break.
You need to add events to the sequences and set their properties.
Each sequence ends with a Return event, which causes iTX to return the regional channel to
playing out the output of the main channel.
