Day Offset
The day offset for program transfers and for playlists are different due to the hardware requirements of the
AMR-100 receiver.
Amb-OS User Interface Transfer Day Offset
Use a negative number to prefeed or get a program before the scheduled air date and a positive number to
day the transfer after the air date. The Amb-OS User Interface uses the date of the program as the reference
point. Thus, to play a program early, subtract from the programs air date and to air it late add to the
programs air date.
Example – air date 05-14-15:
-1, the file will be transferred on 05-13-15 (Program air date (14) - 1 = desired transfer date of 13)
0, the file will be transferred on 05-14-15
1, the file will be transferred on 05-15-15 (Program air date (14) + 1 = desired transfer date of 15)
For a full discussion on entering day offsets for transfers please refer to the Rename Files section.
AMR-100 Playlist Day Offset
Use a positive number to prefeed programs in the playlist and a negative number to delay the transfer after
the air date. The AMR-100 uses the desired air date as the reference. Thus, to play a program early add to
the desired air date to get the date of the program and subtract from the desired air date to the get the air date
of the program.
Example – air date of 05-14-15
1 or +1, plays the program on 05-13-15 (Desired date (13) + 1 = program air date of 14)
0, the file will be played on 05-14-15
-1, the file will be played on 05-15-15 (Desired date (15) - 1 = program air date of 14)
