Adding a Simulcast Channel to an iTX System
A simulcast channel can be created for any existing channel, providing the playout server
has a compatible SDI I/O card installed. For more information see Playout Type Support, on
page 4.
Note: The steps below describe the process for creating a simulcast
channel on its own playout server. To add a simulcast channel to a
playout server that already has a channel configured on it, see Adding
Extra Channels to a Playout Server
, on page 26.

Play 2 Config by double-clicking on the TXPlay 2
Config icon on the Windows Desktop.
