Adding a Command to a Cart

Sometimes you will need to create a Pre-defined Command within PlayoutONE that can be scheduled by your music scheduling software. This is achieved by creating a Pre-Defined command within PlayoutONE and then attaching it to a cart. You can then schedule the carts UID with the command attached to it.

Create The Command

From within PlayoutONE open the commands menu and create your command.

Creating The Cart

Create a new blank cart in PlayoutONE.
Click AutoID to pick the next UID from within the database (or type something in manually)
Give the cart a Title.
Set Type to Command
Go to the Commands Tab

Select the Pre-defined command you made in the first part of this article from the Pre-defined drop down.
Tick the radio button next to it.
Click Save

Schedule The Cart

You've now attached the pre-defined command to a cart in PlayoutONE. This can now be scheduled by your music scheduling software by scheduling the UID.
