EasyGuide 2000      

Control 4 StarGuide II or III Receivers

Teamed with the new  STARSCAN  Router,  EasyGuide 2000 is the  total automation software for your StarGuide Receivers and will control up to 4 different receivers. The NEW EasyGuide 2000  will keep all your program channels coordinated and allow your station to take advantage of the multi program offerings with a minimum of receiver audio cards. Bring new use to your older 486 or later computer. EasyGuide 2000  will work with all radio networks employing the StarGuide II and III Receivers.

EasyGuide is very user friendly but yet a very powerful switching director for your StarGuide Satellite Receivers. The system has the feel of Windows operation but operates under DOS 5.0  and above. The software will operate on any DOS based computer 486 or greater with a speed of 166 Mhz or greater.  A simple connection from the computer’s Com Ports 1-4,  standard or non-standard IRQ's select puts all the switching power in your control room. EasyGuide 2000 works with a single receiver directly or with STARSCAN for multiple receiver control. Problems with the computers internal clock are history because EasyGuide 2000 can get the time from the Network via the StarGuide II or III  Receiver and sets your computer clock.

EasyGuide 2000 keeps full track of all dual channel audio cards. Special audio channel selections makes programming very simple and straight forward. EasyGuide 2000  also monitors your receiver and displays signal strength and receiver channel status plus all switching information for the broadcast day. The program can control all five audio ports in the receiver. The software makes it possible to not only switch the audio service channels but allow custom audio swaps. As an example, take Channel “B” audio and put it on Channel “A” or vice-versa. Daily event switch logging is included.

Quick manual control is one keystroke away and makes it easy for on air personnel to make quick channel changes. Help information is instantly available in the programming and edit positions.

A text screen of the Main, Program and Set-up Windows is located on the reverse of this sheet.
