6-29 . To set the format, select either V ERTIGO or OSI from the drop-down list.

into which As Run Log file the current entries will appear. You may choose from either P

• First Day Of Week:
• Write As Run Log Header: When OSI is selected as the As Run Log Format and this
setting is enabled, a header record is added within a newly created As Run Log file.
Note that if a playlist stops and restarts, no new header is created. When this setting is
disabled, no header is created in the As Run Log file.
• Station Call Letters: Enter the station’s call letter that you want to appear in the As
Run log header.
Vertigo File Format
When the Vertigo format is selected, the name of the As Run log file depends upon the A S
R UN L OG F REQUENCY setting. If the A S R UN L OG F REQUENCY setting is set to P ER P LAYLIST ,
then the file name is based upon the date of the first log entry (e.g. 30-09-2009.asr).
However, if the A
S R UN L OG F REQUENCY setting is set to W EEKLY , the log file is automatically
named using the 52-week calendar convention (e.g. week40.asr).
Each time a playlist element is taken to air, an entry is recorded in the log file. The format
the entries is in Vertigo format is as follows:
•
Date played: The date that the element was played on air. (DD-MM-YYYY)
• Timestamp: The time at which the element was played on air. (HH:MM:SS, on a 24-hour
clock)
• Duration: Not implemented. The length of time that the element was played on air.
(HH:MM:SS, on a 24-hour clock)
• Item’s name: The name of the page or clip that was played out.
