Using Control Events
The Event Library
Click on the Event tab of the Library. Your system administrator should already have prepared events for you. If this is not the case (i.e. the Event list is empty), please contact your system administrator or refer to the Chapter above.
Playing an Event item
Drop one or multiple Events into the Workbench (or a Folder inside the Workbench).
Select the Event in the Workbench and load it into the Timeline.
Press the “Play” button in the Workbench or the Timeline to execute the event immediately.
Depending on the functionality defined for the selected Event item, playing, and Event item can execute one or several events at the same time. Please contact your system administrator for more info.
Please refer to Chapter 6.11 Start/End Events (Secondary Events) to learn how Events can be added as Secondary Events to a Video element.
We support an extensive number of routers from different vendors using different protocols. Please → contact us directly if you would like to use a router/protocol which is currently not supported.
Rule-based Events
It is possible to execute Events based on time (called Rules), without the need to schedule an Event in the user interface. Please refer to Chapter 13.18 Configuring Event Devices/Presets and Rules (v.5.x) for more information about Rules.
