Setting up iNEWS for GV STRATUS Rundown

To set up iNEWS for use with GV STRATUS Rundown, you need to add a new MOS device to the iNEWS configuration file:

  1. On the MOS gateway machine, open the file C:\Program Files\Avid\MOSGateway\mosconfig.xml.
  2. Modify the following lines of the file, adding values for your location:
    Value Description
    ncs id Your Newsroom Computer System name; this value is case sensitive and must match the NCS ID configuration in the XMOS Server options.
    host The hostname of the iNEWS server.
    mos Your MOS ID; this value is case sensitive and must match the MOS ID configuration in the XMOS Server options.
    amcp The tag displayed in iNEWS scripts for placeholders embedded in scripts. This value should match the device name that appears in the iNEWS SYSTEM.MAP file.
    network The hostname of the machine running the XMOS Server.
    Note: With iNEWS, <handlesRoItemLevelCommands> default setting could cause stories to drop to the bottom of the playlist when they are newly inserted, or when their channel assignment is changed. Therefore, <handlesRoItemLevelCommands> value should be set to NO in the mosconfig.xml file.
