Chapter 22 Plan for and Manage Emergencies

Procedures

Tip

 

You can submit an emergency to a DMP group while it is showing a playlist or presentation that describes some

 

 

other emergency. There is no need to explicitly stop playback of the current emergency message before you start another one.

Stop Playback of an Emergency Message

Before You Begin

Start playback of an emergency message.

Procedure

Step 1 Choose Digital Media Players > Emergencies.

OR

Choose Schedules > Emergencies.

Step 2 Click Stop Emergency.

Step 3 Expand the Select DMP Group tree, click the DMP group that is colored red, and then click Stop.

If you choose a DMP group that has child groups, the child groups and their member DMPs are also selected automatically.

Step 4 To confirm your selections, which will stop playback of your emergency message and restore normal scheduling for the DMP group (and children) that you chose, click OK. Alternatively, to discard your selections without stopping the emergency, click Cancel.

A message tells you whether you stopped the emergency successfully. After you dismiss the message, the page is refreshed.

If you stopped the emergency, the DMP group that you chose in Step 3 is no longer colored red in the Select DMP Group tree.

Step 5 Stop. You have completed this procedure.

If you selected a DMP group whose member DMPs were not showing emergency messages, these DMPs will stop and then restart their playback of whatever asset they are scheduled to show.

If separate emergencies were in effect simultaneously across multiple DMP groups and you stopped the emergency for only one group, remember that the event-scheduling features at Schedule > Play in Future still are suspended for all groups where emergencies remain in effect.
