The R&S
®
VENICE Client software is the operator’s interface to
the video channels. With it the operator can connect to the
server (i.e. to the VENICE server software) via network and
allocate one of the video channels to control ingest, playout and
transform operations. The R&S
®
VENICE Client software can be
installed on any Windows network client for a remote control of
the server. With one instance of the software you can control
different video channels of one or more VENICE servers at the
same time.
Playing Content
Use R&S
®
VENICE Play, the operator‘s interface to the video
channels to playout content. With one instance of the software
you can control different video channels of one or more
VENICE servers at the same time.
In addition VENICE S supports MOS 3.8.4 using SOAP. By
embracing and implementing MOS, Rohde & Schwarz has
opened and simplified the integration of the VENICE S.
Furthermore VENICE S with software version 4 is VDCP
compliant. This proprietary communications protocol primarily is
used in broadcast automation to control broadcast devices, like
video servers for broadcast television. The serial communica-
tions protocol based on RS-422 is derived from the Sony 9-Pin
protocol, an industry-standard protocol for controlling profes-
sional broadcast VTRs.
VENICE S uses the tightly coupled master-slave methodology
of VDCP. The controlling device takes the initiative in communi-
cations between the controlling broadcast automation device
and the controlled device (video disk). VDCP conforms to the
Open Systems Interconnection (OSI) reference model.

page 75 and chapter “Out- or Input of Master/Slave Control
Signals” on page 43.
