Configuring MOS Settings in Command
The MOS category in the System Settings dialog box allows system administrators to
configure the Command system to integrate with a MOS-enabled newsroom computer
system, such as ENPS. A MOS-enabled newsroom computer system can send playlists to
Command.
MOS (Media Object Server) is an industry-standard, XML-based protocol that is primarily
used by a newsroom computer system (NRCS) to maintain running orders on a video server.
MOS also enables servers to update the newsroom computer system with changes to the
server’s media inventory. Command’s MOS support enables communication between the
newsroom computer system and AirSpeed video servers, as shown in the following
illustration.
MOS does not provide a means of controlling playout from a video server. Command
supplies this function.
Under the MOS category are three subcategories:
General - used to configure MOS and graphics style settings.
Channel Groups - used to identify channel groups for integration with MOS-based
newsroom computer systems.
Advanced - used for advanced MOS feature configuration.
n
Avid strongly recommends contacting Customer Support before altering any of the advanced
settings.
To configure Command’s system settings to work with a MOS-based newsroom
computer system:
1. At a Command Workstation, select Tools > System Settings.
2. Expand the MOS category.
3. Select General.
