PLAY [-P] [playlist] This command switches the unit to Playback mode
and plays a previously made recording.
The PLAY command plays back the items in the
optional playlist.The playlist may contain up to 5
clipnames. Clips in the playlist will be played in the
order they appear in the playlist.
If a playlist is not entered, the most recently
recorded clip in the current directory will be played.
It the optional -P argument is supplied, the DGy will
be queued for playing but will immediately enter the
PLAY Pause mode. To start playback from Pause
a PLAY command must be issued. This provides
the ability to set up a play back and to “instantly”
start playback and is particularly useful in
controlling multiple DGy recorders.
Example
Play the clips named clip1, clip7 and latest_clip
using the PLAY PAUSE mode.
PLAY - P clip1 clip7 latest_clip
PLAY
SYNChronizedPLAY <clipname> <starttime>
[clipstarttime| startmark
- MARK]
The SYNChronizedPLAY command is used to
schedule playback of a clip at a specified time. The
start point within the clip can be defined using the
optional parameters clipstarttime or startmark -
MARK.
Example:
Start playback from the beginning of a clip named
Rec227 at 8:15 pm, June 11th 2005.
syncrec Rec227 20050611500
The SYNChronizedPLAY command is typically
used to synchronize multiple DGy recorders so that
they will perform as a multi-channel playback
system. Before using the DGy in this mode it is
recommended that the real time clocks of each
DGy are synchronized using either an IRIG or NTS
time reference (synchronizing is then automatic).
The SYNChronizedPLAY command should then
be issued to each machine using the same time
argument.
SYNChronizedSTATus (none) Cancels any queued synchronized command. See
SYNChronizedPLAY and SYNChronizedRECord.
