Optional parameters
To modify the behaviour of the player, you can add optional parameters to the directory name. These
parameters are boxed with the "[" "]"symbols. You can add several parameters to the directory name.
[Jxxx] - Jump to another directory after reading the current directory.
[AUX] - Switch the player on the auxiliary input after reading the current directory.
[RET] - Returns to the previous directory after reading the current directory.
[RND] or [SEQ] - Specifies random or sequential playback mode for the current directory.
[Rxxx] - Action output contacts.
V+xx] or [V-xx] - Controls the volume level of the directory.
Note: If no optional parameter has been indicated, the player reads randomly the current
directory in full and stops.

[Jxxx] - Names the directory No. to JUMP to after reading the current directory.
By adding this parameter to the directory name after the directory No., you define the behaviour of the
player after reading the current directory so that it starts reading another directory or loop in this
directory.
Example:
xxx [J002]: Jump to directory 002 after reading directory xxx
001 [J023]: Jump to directory 023 after reading directory 001
034 [J034]: Jump to directory 034 after reading 034 -> Loops in directory 034
xxx represents a directory number between 000 & 999

[AUX] - Selects the auxiliary input after reading
the current directory.
EventPlayer has an Auxiliary audio input. To this input, a
sound source such as a satellite receiver, computer,
another audio player … can be connected. The
EventPlayer controls the main source to broadcast
programmed messages, news, jingles…
The player can be used to broadcast local information
or as a backup system.
By a program or trigger (by input contact, Ethernet or
serial link …) the audio program which enters via the auxiliary socket is interrupted with a fade-out and
the selected directory is played. If the Auxiliary input is selected again, the initial audio broadcast starts
again with a fade-in.
To return from the auxiliary mode and read a directory, it is necessary to launch an action on one of the
inputs, a scheduled program or a RS232 command, via Ethernet or a programmed button on the front
panel.
Example:
001 [AUX]: Reads directory 001 and then switches to the Auxiliary input
