About Output Server 2 Channel Status Indicators

The table below describes the indicators that may appear on top of the Schedule Grid for
an Output Server 2 system:

Indicator

Description

In a leader/follower system, this indicator appears for the leader (main)
channel.

In a leader/follower system, this indicator appears for any of the follower
channels. This includes:

• Backup channels
• Simulcast channels
• Simulcast backup channels.

In an simulcast system, this indicator appears on simulcast and simulcast
backup channels, alongside the Follower label.

In a system with a matrix router, this indicator appears when the channel
output is routed to a destination to which the transmission system is
connected.

Note:

• Channel control and schedule changes cannot be performed on Follower

channels.

• During transition from Output Server 1 to Output Server 2, Output Server

1 master channels will display a Master indicator and their Output Server
2 slave channels will display a Follower indicator.

Configuring Server Controller for Output Server 2 Components

Under normal operating conditions, the Service Controller configuration for each iTX
service is updated and maintained by modifying the respective configuration utility.
However, sometimes it is necessary to make changes to the way a service runs by changing
the Server Controller configuration directly.
