Adding events
1
Select a playlist or a control command in the Content 
Management window.
2
Add the selected playlist or control command to the 
corresponding column of the daily schedule by a drag 
& drop operation.
The dropped playlist or control command is added to 
the daily schedule as an event. The color of the cell 
where the event is specified changes to light blue. At 
this moment, the duration of the playlist event is 
identical to the dropped playlist, and that of the control 
command event is one second, on the list, regardless of 
the time that would take to complete the task.
3
Modify the duration of the playlist event, if necessary. 
(The duration of a control command event cannot be 
changed.)
Right-click the event, and select [Change Duration] on 
the popup menu.
The Change Duration dialog box appears. The current 
event duration is shown in it.
4
Modify the duration of the playlist event as desired, 
then click [OK].
When you extend the event duration, the playlist will 
be played repeatedly within the duration. When you 
shorten the duration, playout of the playlist will stop in 
the middle.
To insert an event at the top of the daily schedule or 
between two consecutive cells, hold down the Ctrl key and 
drop the desired playlist or control command on the lower 
cell that comes immediately after the insertion point. Then 
adjust the start time and/or duration of the event, if 
necessary. 
Replacing the playlist or control command 
specified in a cell with another 
Paste the desired playlist or control command from the 
Contents Management window by a drag & drop 
operation.
The playlist or control command specified in that cell will 
be overwritten by the newly pasted playlist or control 
command.

Schedule window, then click [Delete] on the popup

key.
A confirmation message appears.

Click [Yes].
The event is deleted.
To select both the control command and playlist events on 
the same line of the daily schedule, click the leftmost Start 
Time column.
Modifying the start time of an event
This operation adjusts the start time of an event and cannot
