The event controller is capable of an infinite number of programmings, but for the ticker job, the
10 that initially appear on the screen are more than enough. In fact, only two are absolutely
necessary.
To program an event, you must first know exactly what you want the unit to do. For the stock
ticker job, you more than likely want the local ads to be compressed during times that the ticker
is present on the national feed, and you want the local ads full screen when no national ticker is
present.
This makes programming very simple. You will program EVENT #1 to send the Protector GPI
#1 into SEQUENCE FOLLOW mode during ticker times. You will then program EVENT #2 to
send the Protector GPI #1 to OFF mode during non-ticker times.
So, let’s take a look at what you have to do to make this happen!
Across the top of the Event Controller form, you will see five white text boxes (fig. 12).
The first box is for selecting a specific date. You may want to select a specific date to program a
certain day differently than most days, such as a holiday. For our purposes though, you will
want to make a couple of events that run the same every weekday, so DESELECT EVENT
DATE box by clicking on the checkmark, and ensuring the checkmark disappears (fig. 13).
