Server Commands
These are the general Server functions.
This chapter contains the following sections
• Send Play
• Fetch Play
• Backup Sync
• Force To Backup
Send Play
Play data is not replicated automatically - for security reasons. A play can only be sent from Server to
Backup. Always send or fetch the most current play before running a show.
1. Select the Browser by pressing BROWSER (if it was selected it will be closed, press again to open).
2. Use the down and right arrow keys to open the NETWORK node.
3. Select Send Play and press MODIFY. You will get a confirmation message in the bottom of the
screens.
Once the Play is transferred you have the same Play information in both consoles. The Play file name
is transferred, and the playbacks in the receiving system will position to the same steps as in the main
system. If you make changes in either console, you have to transfer the Play to update the other
console. This guarantees that a programming crash in one system won't bring down the other system.
NOTE
The Play is transferred, but not saved. You have to save it manually.
There is an Auto-transfer Play option in the Backup Settings. See Network -
Backup Commands .
Fetch Play

play before running a show.
