Using telnet to the "API" port 23, connect and log in.

To test the connection, type "*<Enter>" and you should see a "0"
returned.

The channel-headend scheduling identifier is used to map this channel to one in your traffic
system. It should be in the form CCHHH, where CC is the channel identifier from 00-99 and
HHH is the headend identifier from 000-999.

Type the command " *.dpid cnv c <index> <CCHHH> " where index is the (zero-
based) channel index (0-11).

The default configuration for channel 1 is "01001".

To change this to channel 36 for headend 3, the command would be *.dpid cnv c 0
36003

The response should be "OK".

Enter the command again without the CCHHH value to query the setting, so " *.dpid
cnv c 0 " should reply "OK".

Native Mode ID: 0 36003

After configuring the scheduling identifier, the scheduler will automatically load the schedule
from the schedule directory (/media/hd0/schins) when it is available. The name of the
schedule should be in the format MDDCCHHH.SCH, where m is a single letter representing
the month (1-9, A, B, C), dd is the day of the month (00-31), and CCHHH is the scheduling
identifier.

Spots referenced by the schedule should exist in the directory /media/hd0/media . The
scheduler has a configuration that controls the way the "spot ID" field in the schedule is
interpreted. The field in the schedule is 11 characters wide, but the default setting ("novar")
interprets the spot ID field by using only the 8 right-most characters of the spot ID field.
