Creating a Periodic Schedule
Specifying a playout period
After creating a daily schedule, specify the period when
the daily schedule will be used to create a periodic
schedule.
1
In the BZNP-D1 main window, check that the BZNP-
D1 (PC) option button is selected, and then select the
group for which you want to create a new periodic
schedule using the Group drop-down list box.
2
Select the Daily Schedule tab of the Content
Management window, right-click the desired daily
schedule, then select [Periodic Schedule Settings] on
the popup menu.
The Edit Periodic Schedule dialog box appears.
The index of the selected daily schedule is shown in
the Daily Schedule Index text box.
3
Specify the first and last days of the playout period of
the daily schedule.
Clicking the button of the drop-down list box displays
a calendar. The date you click on the calendar will be
specified in the drop-down list box.
4
Place check marks for the days in the Day of the Week
check boxes to specify specific days of the week in the
period.
You can click each check box separately, or use the
[Check All] or [Clear All] button.
To use the specified daily schedule only on Saturdays
in a period, for example, click [Clear All], then click
the Saturday check box.
5
Click [OK].
A new periodic schedule has been created.
It appears on the Periodic Schedule tab of the Content
Management window.
As the periodic schedules have no index numbers, they
are listed in the order of the date registered. Note that
the type, title and index number shown on the Periodic
Schedule tab are those of the corresponding daily
schedule, not the periodic schedule’s.
By sending a periodic schedule selected here to the
NSP-1, the daily schedule, playlists, and materials,
everything required for playout is sent with it.
See “Sending Data to NSP-1 Players” on page 54 for
details on sending data to the NSP-1.
When you know the index of the desired daily
schedule
Instead of step 2 above, you can right-click any point on
the Periodic Schedule tab, and select [New]. This displays
the Edit Periodic Schedule dialog box with a blank Daily
Schedule Index text box.
Select the Playout option button, playout period, and the
index number of the daily schedule to be used.
Note on overlapped periodic schedules
If more than one periodic schedule is overlapped on a
certain day, the one that has been sent to the NSP-1 players
last (most recently) has the highest priority.
For example, the only difference between the following
two cases is the transfer order. In case A, daily schedule
051000002 will be used on the 1st and 2nd of August, and
051000001 will be used on the rest of the days.
On the other hand, in case B, daily schedule 051000001
will be used throughout the term, and 051000002 will not
be used.
