backIntroduction
RadioTraffic.com converts to a specific PlayBox Technology AirBox ASCII Flat File log format.
Station Configuration
To configure RadioTraffic.com to work with AirBox, you will first need modify the station configuration to utilize AirBox as the automation system. In the administration module, open 'Stations'. Select the station you want to configure and double click. Once the station configuration is visible, select the 'Files' tab. Select the 'Product' to PlayBox Technology AirBox using the drop down selection tool. The 'Automation Log Path' is where RadioTraffic.com will export the log to, so set this to the file system folder that AirBox will pull the file from.
The exported file name will look something like mmddyy.LOG where mm is month, dd is day and yy is last two digits of year.
Cart Numbers
RadioTraffic.com does not restrict the cart numbers exported to the AirBox system; please check with that systems documentation for specific restrictions.

Automation commands are exported as cart numbers.

Log Notes do not export to the AirBox export and are used strictly inside of RadioTraffic.com as a means of "commenting".
