Configuring the DekoMOS Macro Server
115
You can verify that the DekoMOS Macro Server is communicating with the Gateway. When
the Macro Server is first started and correctly communicating with the DekoMOS Gateway,
the Gateway/Styles status icon turns green for a few seconds, then appears grayed out. If
there is no communication, it will appear red, indicating that there is a problem talking to the
Gateway.
You can verify that the DekoMOS Macro Server can confirm the existence of scheduled
graphics, graphic assets, and clips. The status icons next to Template Graphics File
Monitoring, and Replacement Graphic File Monitoring should be green. The DekoMOS
Macro Server must be able to monitor these files to communicate information to Avid
iNEWS Command.
Configuring Styles on the DekoMOS Macro Server
The same style names, but with local paths, must be configured on the Macro Server as they
were configured on the DekoMOS Gateway. For best performance, files for playout are
stored on the Deko; duplicate files, stored on the Gateway, are accessed by the Deko Select
plug-in.
To configure styles and corresponding local paths:
1. Do one of the following:
t If the DekoMOS Macro Server is not running, access the configuration window by
clicking the Start button and select Programs > Avid > DekoMOS > DekoMOS
Macro Server.
t Double-click the desktop icon.
t If the DekoMOS Macro Server is running and is visible in the system tray, click the
DekoMOS symbol in the system tray to maximize the application.
The DekoMOS Macro Server window appears.
2. Click the Styles button.
The Deko Style Settings dialog box opens.
