Establishing Broadcast Control in a Queue
When producing a show, you must establish a connection for the machine or broadcast control
system your station uses. In iNEWS, you can start and stop the monitor server that establishes
broadcast control in a rundown queue.
The Monitor dialog box indicates the monitor quit time in 24-hour time format. This is the time
set by your system administrator to automatically shut off broadcast control if either the producer
or character generator operator forgets to turn the monitor server off at the end of the show. You
can manually turn off broadcast control at any time by using the Monitor command on the Tools
menu. You should manually shut off the monitor server when you are done with the show rather
than relying on the automatic shutoff.
To start or stop the monitor server:
1. Open a rundown queue.
2. Select Tools > Monitor.
The Monitor dialog box opens.
