RadioTraffic converts to a specific Music Master log format.
Station Configuration
To configure RadioTraffic to work with Music Master, you will first need modify the station configuration to utilize Music Master 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 Music Master using the drop down selection tool. The 'Automation Log Path' is where RadioTraffic will export the log to, so set this to the file system folder that Music Master will pull the file from.
Cart Numbers
Music Master limits cart numbers to 8 characters. If the cart number is missing, "*MISSING" will be used.
Categories
Categories are not used with regard to Music Master.
Automation Commands
Automation commands are exported as cart numbers.
Log Notes
Log Notes are currently not exported.
Programs
Programs are currently not exported.
Avails/Breaks
Avail markers do not export and are used strictly inside of RT as a means of scheduling.
Log Reconciliation
Assisted reconciliation is not supported due to Music Master being a music system, not an automation system. The file exported to Music Master is "merged" with music and then sent and processed by an automation system; when setting up assisted reconciliation, choose the automation system that is actually being used - not Music Master.
