Videonics PowerScript Using Time Triggers
117
To trigger a page through a GPI connection:
¨
To trigger a new page of titles (rather than triggering a project) when a signal arrives at
a GPI connector, leave the
Project text box empty.
For example, assume a kiosk is set to display the next page in a pre-defined project when
a viewer presses a button. When no one is using the system, you want the pages to dis-
play at a pre-determined rate. To accomplish this, set up the pages with a duration of 15
seconds per page (or whatever suits you) and play the project. Each page plays for 15 sec-
onds unless a viewer presses the button, in which case the pages change immediately.
Using Time Triggers
Use time triggers to trigger events at pre-arranged times. Use the GPI 3 and GPI 4 options
in the SETUP:GPI menu to create time triggers. Note that PowerScript does not have
physical GPI 3 and GPI 4 connectors. GPI 3 and GPI 4 are internal triggers, triggered by
time.
GPI 3 and GPI 4 events work the same as GPI 1 and GPI 2 except that you trigger events
at a specified time rather than by a signal from an external GPI device.
To create a timed trigger:
1 To trigger a specific project, enter the project name in the Project text box. Do not enter
the PRJ file type extension.
To trigger the next page of the current project (rather than triggering a specific project),
leave the
Project text box empty.
2 Enter the Date and Time you want the GPI event to occur in the designated text boxes.
Enter the date in the format MM/DD/YY . All values must be two digits. For example,
enter 05/09/97 for May 9, 1997.
Enter the time in the format hh:mm:ss AM/PM . All values must be two digits. For
example, enter 05:35:30 PM for 5:35 and 30 seconds in the afternoon.
3
To repeat the event at specified time intervals, enter the time interval in the Repeat text
box. The event begins on the specified date and time, then repeats endlessly at the
specified time interval.
Enter the time interval in the format hh:mm:ss . All values must be two digits. For exam-
ple, if you enter 01:30:00 the event automatically re-triggers every hour and a half.
To remove a time trigger event:
