Remarks on program function

The data for a playlist can be updated, i.e. created, changed or deleted, with this program. Data which has already been stored can be displayed.

Media data such as video sequences, pictures and running texts for the media customer display are stored in the playlist.

Note:
The playlist programmed must be linked to a branch, a profit center or a terminal. If the same playlist is to apply at all terminals in the branch, only one playlist needs to be linked to a branch. However, a dedicated playlist can be linked to each profit center and to each terminal if a different playlist is to apply at this profit center or terminal.

Click on the graphic for further help with setting up the Media Cust.Display.
