3. Plan the Schedule
The schedule determines on which day and at what time of day that Autoplay categories are allowed to play (this
is called an event).
If the phonograph has the optional volume control module installed, the schedule can adjust the phonograph’s volume
at the beginning of each event.
The schedule is composed of five parts (seven parts if you include the optional volume control feature). Each of these
schedule parts are discussed in the paragraphs that follow.
DAY OF THE WEEK
The time and date are set at the factory (they can be changed if needed). The factory-set time is Eastern Standard
Time.
The Central Control Computer (CCC) uses the time and initial date to determine the day of the week by using its
own internal calendar.
If you wish, you may schedule all seven days of the week.
EVENT
An event is space in the schedule where a schedule change is made. Each of the days of the week can have up to
20 events scheduled.
TIME
You must supply a time in the schedule to start Enhanced Autoplay. This time is the exact time that you want Autoplay
to be allowed to check for an idle phonograph. The actual first Autoplay selection will only play after the delay time
(see Delay).
CATEGORIES
All, some, or none of the eight categories can be selected for each event. Select the category (or categories) that
you want to have played when the phonograph makes an Autoplay selection. Autoplay will make its selection from
the lowest selected category. If you supply a play list (play lists are discussed next), Autoplay will pick a play list
selection that is in the selected category.
DELAY
Delay is the time that Autoplay waits to make a selection after the customer selection is played (is scanned out).
CHANNEL 1 AND CHANNEL 2 VOLUME (4-channel preamp only)
VOL1 and VOL2 are single digit numbers (0 through 9 and -1 through -9) that cause the phonograph’s volume to
change in Channel 1 and in Channel 2. This volume change is relative to the volume set by the phonograph’s volume
control. A volume of 0 means use the phonograph volume control’s volume setting. A setting of 1 means boost the
volume slightly and a setting of -1 means reduce the volume slightly. A value of 9 is the maximum volume boost and
a value of -9 is the maximum volume reduction.
