These are the file con- figuration tags: OPTIONS The ARAS configuration file contains comments and some commands, one of them in each line: Lines with a # character at the beginning are comments. ScheduleFile my_schedule_file_path Defines the current schedule file. Quotation marks should be used if my_schedule_file_path contains spaces. BlockFile my_block_file_path Defines the current block description file. Quotation marks should be used if my_block_file_path contains spaces. LogFile my_log_file_path Defines the current log file. Quotation marks should be used if my_log_file_path contains spaces. TimeSignal time_signal_support Defines the time signal support behaviour. time_signal_support parameter can take some values: Off in order to disable time signal support. Hour in order to define hourly time signal support. Half in order to define hourly and half past time signal sup- port. TimeSignalFile my_time_signal_file_uri Defines the time signal audio URI, for example: TimeSignalFile file:///home/radio/ARAS-2.1/media/time_signal.wav Quotation marks should be used if my_time_signal_file_uri con- tains spaces. IntervalSignal interval_signal_support Defines the interval signal support behaviour. interval_sig- nal_support parameter can take some values: Off in order to disable interval signal support. On in order to enable the interval signal support. If interval_signal_support is On, the interval signal is played when a file block finishes before the beginning of the next block. IntervalSignalBlock my_interval_signal_block Defines the interval signal block, for example: IntervalSignalBlock IntervalSignalBlock BlockPlayerVolume volume Defines the block player volume from 0 to 10, for example: BlockPlayerVolume 5E-1 TimeSignalPlayerVolume volume Defines the time signal player volume from 0 to 10, for example: TimeSignalPlayerVolume 5E-1 FadeOutSlope value Defines the fade out slope, for example: FadeOutSlope 1E-1 FadeOutTime value Defines the fade out time in miliseconds, for example: FadeOutTime 4000 FadeOutResolution value Defines the fade out time resolution in miliseconds, for exam- ple: FadeOutResolution 100 DefaultTimeout value Defines ARAS default period in miliseconds, for example: DefaultTimeout 100 TimeSignalTimeout value Defines the time signal support period in miliseconds, for exam- ple: TimeSignalTimeout 100 ConfigurationTimeout value Defines the configuration file update timeout period in milisec- onds, for example: ConfigurationTimeout 1000 RecorderStorage recorder_storage_support Defines the recorder storage support behaviour. recorder_stor- age_support parameter can take some values: Off in order to disable the recorder storage support. On in order to enable the recorder storage support.
