6.5 THE AREAS OF A PLAY-LIST TAB

Within a Play-List tab there are two distinct areas

The On-air area is used to play a play-list and has buttons to control all the
required transport controls. It displays information for the current position of the
list with reference to the next element, next break, time till the end of the list, as
well as times with reference to the current time of day to help determine critical

transmission deadlines.

The Edit area is used to edit a play-list and displays all of its elements and
information corresponding to them.

6.6 THE ON-AIR AREA

This area shows a small portion of the play-list which is currently loaded to an XT
channel and either on-air or ready to play on-air. It has transport controls,
information and status displays relating the current play-list. This number of

elements shown in the list area is defined by the amount of window area allocated
to the on-air part of the tab, but will always show at least 2 elements.

Clips cannot be added or modified using this area of the display. Changes and
modifications to the play-list can be made in the Play-List Edit panel immediately
