Shortcuts
Shortcuts are name substitutions . Defining Shortcuts makes deployment of multiple FrontRow devices of the same type easier .
Use Shortcuts in defining actions that represent the IP addresses of the devices you want to control . This means that your con-
figuration file can be written as a template with IP addresses explicitly defined in only one place (the Shortcut), needing to be
changed only once rather than repeatedly throughout your Actions . This saves a tremendous amount of labor as you re-use the
configuration file to control new devices from room to room .
Typical Shortcuts might be:
•
Conductor Server
– So that you can simply use the shortcut instead of the IP address in commands .
