107.7 Sanef broadcasts a are WheatNet-IP I/O BLADEs, which have
music format but as a highway sta on, it has an added responsibility
to broadcast emergency and tra c alerts anywhere along the roadways it covers. That’s where ScreenBuilder comes in handy.
ScreenBuilder is used to create custom touchscreen interfaces for adjus ng, monitoring and controlling di erent aspects of the WheatNet-IP audio network. In this case, SAVE Di usion, which represents Wheatstone in the region as a full systems integrator,
used ScreenBuilder to create a touchscreen interface so 107.7 Sanef operators could easily select and target news updates to one or more areas of the broadcast network.
In addi on to WheatNet-IP audio control surfaces and talent sta ons, each of 107.7 Sanef’s three studios are equipped with eight screens and screen images of the motorway network cameras. The three studios are networked together using WheatNet-IP audio networking. At the heart of connec vity
embedded intelligence for signal detec on, automa on logic, sound processing and emergency interrupt of programming at each connec on point in the network.
Sanef 107.7 broadcasts a pop/rock format when it is not providing cri cal tra c informa on to its listeners.
As part of the WheatNet-IP audio network, the touchscreen is o en accessed at monitoring sta ons at various points along the roadways, but it could just as easily be accessed
from anywhere in the world via a remote management tool.
Now, depending on where an event is taking place, operators can target listeners anywhere along the broadcast network to let them know of an upcoming accident or tra c jam, or if another motorist is traveling in the opposite direc on, for example. Meanwhile, elsewhere in the broadcast network, operators can alert motorists of a breakdown up ahead or a large object or animal obstruc ng the roadway. l
