DVC Files for Scheduling
Schedule DVC files allow the user to create a Schedule and/or a set of
Commands in a text file. This file will be placed in the first partition of a hard
drive. When the drive is placed in a Mirage/Soloist 2 the unit will Load the
Schedule and/or Commands when the unit is powered up or reset. The
Mirage/Soloist 2 can also have the Schedule play automatically on power-up or
reset.
Text Editor
To create a Schedule for the Mirage/Soloist 2 a Text Editor must be used like
the one in Symphony’s File Manager. A word processor may also be used to
accomplish this task as well, but ADTEC does suggest using the Text Editor in
Symphony. After the Schedule is complete, save the file to the first partition on
the hard drive in the Mirage/Soloist 2 using the File Manager in Symphony.
The file
MUST
follow a specific name configuration. The file name follows the
DOS 8.3 structure. The first three characters must be SCH. After the first three
characters you can use either the AUTO, which will cause the file to
automatically start playing on power-up or reset, or you can use up to five
characters to name the file something else. Remember, the only way to have the
file automatically start playing is to use the AUTO in the file name. Otherwise
the Schedule will execute when a Play command is given.
