Configure Control Rooms
A control room consists of a set of Deko systems used for playback of a single rundown or show.
Traditionally, the outputs of these Deko systems would all be routed to the same room. With
DekoMOS, you can define control rooms and assign specific channels of specific Dekos to the
virtual channels of that control room. Each control room can have as many as nine channels
assigned to it. Using control rooms with virtual channels allows rundowns to be easily redirected
to a different control room for playback in case of emergency or for flexibility.
You can also control one rundown from multiple control points. The same rundown can appear on
multiple DekoMOS Playback Controllers. In this case, each Playback Controller may be used for
a certain function, as the station prefers. For example, an operator may be advancing Channel 1
and Channel 2 from the keyboard of one DekoMOS Playback Controller, while a GPI connected
to another DekoMOS Playback Controller and to the switcher is advancing Channel 3.
