4.10: Load files onto a QBox remotely

Script files and rundowns are automatically stored on to your QBox while it is attached to an IT

network by either a cable or wireless connection.

An advantage of QBox is that it can be operated in situations away from a studio environment.

The rundown for a broadcast is stored on the QBox before the presenter and cameraman leave,

but if changes need to be added or the presenter writes a special script while on location, this can

be loaded onto the QBox.

Files can be loaded using a variety of methods. These include:

• from a USB memory device

• from the internal FTP server on the QBox

• from a Bluetooth® device

NOTE: If the QMaster software has an active connection to your QBox, you will not

be able load or prompt any files stored locally on the QBox.
