CrawlMaster
Overview
The CrawlMaster application is used to place crawl messages on air through LogoMaster.
CrawlMaster uses Crawl Channels to add crawls to a LogoMaster page. Multiple crawls
(Crawl Channels) can be displayed at the same time. Each Crawl Channel can include up to
three types of crawl messages: PROMO, INCOMING and MANUAL.
Each of these Message types is characterized by a style which includes: name, font, speed,
background and ID. Crawl message can be separated by Gaps (recommended: 16 pixels),
static Pictures or animated Bugs.
Messages Overview
Promo Messages are manually entered into the CrawlMaster application and will crawl
continuously until removed by the operator. A Channel can contain and crawl multiple Promo
messages.
Incoming Messages get their text information from a data link or from a database. Incoming
Messages are fed from an application that provides data to the crawl channel through a data
port Incoming messages can also be retrieved from a database file. A database file also
provides a means of updating the information from another location over the network. Similar
to a Promo Message, Incoming Messages are designed to crawl continuously.
Manual messages are entered manually into the CrawlMaster application and are triggered as
a single crawl event by the operator.
