DJB Zone Music Log FileName
The output music log is named MUS_MMDDYYYY.LOG where MM is the 2 digit month, DD is the 2 digit day, and YYYY is the year.
The MUS_MMDDYYYY.LOG file format is a proprietary format of DJB Zone and does not use the Generic Text Log File Format.
Example: Music Log for Wednesday, January 6th 2010 is MUS_01062021.LOG. This file can be viewed with a text editor such as Notepad.
Slot-by-Slot Loading
The Natural Music song list is loaded by DJB Zone into each hour slot-by-slot into Music avails set up in the DJB Zone shells.
In other words, the first element in the hour is loaded into the first music slot for that hour in the shell, the second item into the second slot, and so on.
At the top of each hour, Zone can skip any unused songs in the prior hour and load the first song in the new hour as listed in Natural Music's Music Log.
This requires the use of a command cut 9999 Sync which must be the last element in the clock..
In the output file it will look like this for the midnight hour:
00 !9999
DJB Zone™ Source Restrictions
Zone uses a Cut Number from 1 to 99999 to identify cuts. Be sure to put a valid cut ID in the Source entry field in Natural Music.
This is the field that will be sent to DJB Zone to tell it to play this Audio Cut.
