All of our hardware and software products fully support both Audio and Visual alerting, no extra fees, licenses or code required. When a radio or TV station uses our systems to manage schedules and play out, it only requires checking off a menu item and alerts are automatically injected into the broadcast chain. Some stations already have an automation system or run manually operating in a standalone mode, requiring only the player to receive and issue alerts. Alerts are received and played out on demand from the onboard audio and/or video device to mixing board and modulator. Each station is setup and run differently to trigger alerts, using various methods including: streaming alerts on demand, interrupting IP stream or combination using RS232 serial GPIO.
