SESFILES FOLDER
The SesFiles folder holds all of the user-created
session and macro files, and the
init.mac
file,
which is a special macro file created and main-
tained using VMCC.
A session file is used to instantly change con-
sole channel settings for particular dayparts or for
specific applications like voice tracking, produc-
tion, newsroom use or on-air use. A session is cre-
ated by first selecting the channel sources and set-
ting the channel button assignments as required
for a particular daypart or application. Pressing
Save on the Monitor Control panel saves these con-
sole settings as a new session file into the SesFiles
folder.
A session file is loaded into the console by first
using the Monitor Control panel’s rotary Session
Selector to alphanumerically list the
.ses
files in
the SesFiles folder. With the desired session file
name displayed, press
Take to load that session
into the console. This reconfigures the channel set-
tings—except for those channels that are On, they
do not change to the new session settings until
they are turned Off to prevent any on-air signal
interruption.
Macro files are text files like sessions, but they
are not selected using the Session Selector. If a
board operator would need to load a macro they
can be assigned to a router channel, otherwise they
are loaded using FTP commands (either manu-
ally using FTP Voyager or automatically by using
the Task Scheduler program included on the 99-
5000 CD-ROM). Macro files have a
.mac
suffix.
INIT.MAC
This text file is a special macro file maintained
by VMCC. It loads automatically each time the SBC
starts up. It sets: default routes; default logic set-
tings and logic I/O bindings to audio sources;
monitor and meter selection button assignments;
mute codes; and various audio input settings.
The SesFiles folder holds session and macro files.
The SysFiles folder holds these console config and
setup files:
ROUTERS.INI
,
INVENTORY.TXT
,
LOCAL_PUBLISH.CFG
,
EDGEDEVICE.INI
,
SERVERID.TXT
and, when the console is net-
worked in a VistaMax System, a device publish
file (
Dx_PUBLISH.CFG
) for other devices (con-
soles and racks) in the VistaMax community.
RMXDIGITAL SERVER FILES OVERVIEW
RELEASE.TXT
This text file—stored at the top level of the flash
drive, lists the operating system version, build
number and build date. This can be compared to
the current operating system build on the Harris
FTP site (see page 5-1 for access details). The
release.txt
file looks like this:
NQX.INI
This essential setup file is in the Storage Card
folder. It is read as the SBC starts after power up,
when the SBC Reset button is pressed or when
the SBC is reset via an FTP command.
The file stores the console’s IP address, server
name, device number and several other start-up
parameters. The file is maintained using VMCC.
The most commonly edited file entries are cov-
ered in on page 4-5, RMX
d Server Configuration.
PROVISIONED.HASH
This file is also in the Storage Card folder. It is
created by VMCC, which uses it to determine which
files are to be replaced when Distributing files.
Deleting this file will cause the next Distribute files
action to replace all files. This is equivalent to se-
lecting the Force Download option.
