A rundown is an ordered list of content that will play out in a selected zone. A rundown set is a collection of rundowns created for all of the zones in a scene as each zone has it's own rundown. For example, you could have a right zone that plays traffic reports during the morning and evening commute, and loops through weather information for major cities in your broadcast region, as well as a bottom zone that plays financial information. You combine rundown sets with an existing graphics package to create a show in Chameleon. You can define rundown sets immediately after creating a show by editing the show's rundown in the Show Control module. You can also create rundowns independently from show creation in Chameleon. From the Home menu, under Broadcast Control select Ticker select Rundowns. Image Removed Image Added

The zones available in this list are the zones defined in the graphics package.
