Reload

Default SHIFT+F12

This command will stop playout and reload the current rundown, cuing the first story in the rundown in preview.

Start Continue

Also known as Take Next.

Default F12

This command will do one of four things:

  1. Start a rundown which is currently not running, either at the top or at a point selected by the operator using the Set as Next Story command in the Rundown window.

  2. Take the next template within a story to air.

  3. Take the first template in the story set as next if there are no more templates left in the current story.

  4. The Take Next command is also used to take continue points that have been set in a template, such as a DVE forward on the mixer. A warning appears in the bottom of the Program window to alert the operator that the next F12 will activate the continue point rather than take the next primary event.
