Working with schedules
Monitoring and controlling live schedules
The iTX Channel Control layout contains components that give information on the live schedule
in a playout channel. Through these components, you can view information about the current

You may edit a schedule by inserting events, deleting events or making last-minute changes to
event properties.
In controlling playout, you may end the current event early by taking the next event or any
