Setting procedure
The following figure shows the "System Setup" window
that appears in the VSPA-D7 main window, first.
1
Change the settings as required.
For details about setup items, see "Setup items in the
System Setup window" below.
2
Click [OK].
The "System Setup" window closes.
When you have not yet made the setup in the "VSP-
NS7 Setup" window, the window appears
automatically.
Note
When you modify the "VSP-NS7 Operation Time"
and/or "VSP-NS7 Time Adjustment" settings, you
have to send the settings to the player.
See "Sending the Settings to the Players" on page 16
and send the settings from the "VSP-NS7 Setup"
window.
Setup items in the System Setup window
VSPA-D7 Database Folder
This item specifies the folder that stores materials,
playback schedules, and setup data. Data are stored
separately by type in the VspaData folder, which is
automatically created in the folder that is specified here.
Normally, you do not need to change this setting.
VSP-NS7 Operation Time
The "Start Time" and "End Time" specify the daily
operating time for the players.
Set them according to the time slot in which you want to
perform scheduled playback and the time slot in which
data is delivered from the VSPA-D7 software.
The player automatically starts earlier than the specified
time so that the operation can be started at the specified
time; however, specify the "Start Time" even earlier if the
player cannot finish its startup in time.
VSP-NS7 Time Adjustment: Synchronize all VSP-
NS7s' system time with this PC's
Place a check mark in this check box to automatically
synchronize the clocks of all players within the system
with the computer that is running the VSPA-D7 software.
If you want to synchronize the player times individually
with an NTP server, do not place a check mark in this
check box. Instead, specify the NTP server in "Detailed
Settings" of the "VSP-NS7 Setup" window.
Note
When operating players with their clocks synchronized to
the computer that is running the VSPA-D7 software, set a
fixed IP address for that computer. The players access the
computer via port 123 to adjust the time. So, if the
computer has a fire wall, permission must be given to
receive data via port 123. Also, do not power off the
computer while the players are operating, and make sure
that the computer will not go in the standby (power-
saving) mode.
Further, to ensure that the system operates according to an
accurate time, the computer time must be synchronized
with the NTP server or manually adjusted on a regular
basis. To manually adjust the time, double-click the "Date
and Time" icon on the Windows Control Panel and make
the settings in the "Properties" window of "Date and
Time."
Avoid manually adjust the computer time while the player
are operating. Players adjust their clocks upon startup. But
once they have started, they can only adjust their clocks in
very small steps.
