3. In

Script Configuration

, enter a

Script Name

and select a

Device Type

(MPEG1, MPEG2/

MPEG4/WM, or Other) from the dropdown list—and wait a few seconds for ETV
Portal Server to populate the panel with a list of devices.

4. In

Select Device

, highlight one or more devices and use the arrow buttons to populate

the right panel.

5. Create the

Script Content

.

a. For VBrick devices, select a

Parameter Name

from the dropdown list, enter a

Parameter Value

, and click

Add

. Repeat as many times as necessary and click

Submit

when done. Note that the order in which you add parameters is critical. This is the
order in which the commands will be executed at runtime. (See Finding VBrick
Parameters and Values for mo
re information.

b. For non-VBrick (

Other

) devices, write the script in a native language compatible with

the device (or copy and paste binary input) and click

Submit

when done.

To run a previously created script, login to ETV Portal Server and click

Scheduled Programs

.

Then create a schedule by selecting a date, time, and (optionally) a recurrence pattern. When
done, click

Script

and select the script you want to run on the schedule you just defined.

Example

The following example shows binary input for a VBrick VBIR device. In a typical scenario
you will need to set the

Passthrough State

and other parameters on the encoder before you

can run the script. See "Serial Port Passthrough" in the VB4000-5000-6000 Admin Guide for
more information. The following example programs a VBrick VBIR device to device code
351 and sends the Play command. This is just a brief example. If you need help or want more
information about using binary scripts, please contact VBrick Support Services.
