Creating Script Files
Script files are simply .txt files with a list of one or more commands. For a detailed
description of how to create scripts that will change appliance parameters, see CLI Examples
on page 50. As noted, you can create and FTP script files that will perform common
configuration tasks. For example the following script sets the
Target Bit Rate
for the first
video rate on Channel 2 to 800K.
VBrick# svar vbrickEncoderVideoH264TargetBitRate.2.1=800000
VBrick# svar vbrickEncoderVideoCommonApplySet.1=2
Script files have explicit, predefined names that cannot be changed. There are also specific
syntax rules that must be observed (see Scripting Syntax on page 51). In particular make sure
that every configuration element in the script is followed by an appropriate
applyset
command. The script file names include:
event1Script.txt
event2Script.txt
event3Script.txt
event4Script.txt

After creating a script, it must be FTPed to the appliance before you can use it. You can use
an FTP program or you can use the FTP functionality in VBAdmin:
