Quick Start Guide
Link the Playlist to the Firefly
With the Playlist completed, publish it to the Fire-
fly MZ. This involves linking the playlist or a
schedule to the player.
•
Link the playlist to the player, if only this play-
list is to playback.
•
If multiple playlists are to playback on the
Firefly MZ, create a schedule. Use Media Mes-
senger to generate a schedule that determines
when and for how long each playlist runs on
the player. Refer to Media Messenger Help for
details about setting up schedules.
This procedure links the playlist to the player.
Linking a schedule to the player is similar but ini-
tiates through the Schedules Pane.
