Greetings!
First, we’d like to take the opportunity to thank you for airing the Harvest Anaheim Crusade.
On the below-listed dates/start-times the English and Spanish releases of the Harvest Anaheim
Crusade will be carried live on the AMR-100 receiver. Stations may be permissioned for either or
both languages for some or all three evenings of the crusade.

Sunday, August 16-9:00 PM (Eastern)
There are two issues of interest to you that we’d like to bring to your attention.
Output Ports
There are two stereo output ports or four monaural ports on the AMR-100. To give you some
flexibility, the English release of the program will be sent to mapped port TMAP5 which defaults to
Audio Output Port T2L (mono) on your receiver. The Spanish release of the program will be sent to
mapped port TMAP6 which defaults to Audio Output Port T2R (mono) on your receiver. If you
subscribe to the English release only you’ll receive your mono audio on TMAP5. If you subscribe to
the Spanish release only you’ll receive your mono audio on TMAP6. If you subscribe to both
releases you’ll receive the English audio on TMAP5 and the Spanish audio on TMAP6. If you are
happy having the Harvest Anaheim Crusade audio stream out of Port T2 left and/or right, you
need not do anything further. The program will play-out on schedule. Please note that each release
is sent in mono only and if dual channel output is desired at your location (if you’re feeding the
program to your FM station) you’ll need to make the necessary audio changes external to the AMR100.
On the other hand, if you’d like to stream the program out another port, please reference
pages 8, 14, 15, 52 & 62 of the latest AMR-100 manual (FW 1.70, Revision 37, 5/28/09)
and the additional information that follows. If audio output on a different port is desired,
refer to the AMR manual for details on how to change the TMAP5 and/or TMAP6
physical mapping.
Target Maps
Mapped targets use the same physical outputs, but can be addressed by a single
name. The mapped names are listed below with their default mapping:
TMAP1 – T1 (stereo)
TMAP2 – T2 (stereo)
TMAP3 – T1L (mono)
TMAP4 – T1R (mono)
TMAP5 – T2L (mono)
TMAP6 – T2R (mono)
Normally, live programs will be sent to a mapped port and the associated default
hardware port (T1, T2, T1L, etc.) will be used—connections to the air chain can
stay in place. If you wish to have a different configuration you can specify a new
mapped target from the AMR-100’s front panel. The target in the playlist stays the
same even if the external routing is changed.
1
If the TMAP1 is mapped to T1L, then when the TMAP1 target is specified in a
playlist, it will play out T1L (mono). However, if you change the mapping of TMAP1
to T2 (stereo), then when TMAP1 is used as a target, it will go out the second
stereo port.
This has little use internally to a station, but it becomes valuable to a live program,
because the head-end of the program does not know what port a receiver is
connected to for airing. The program producer will communicate to the station what
TMAP port they will use. They may, for example, say they will be using TMAP2 for
their program and the station will map that to the physical port they want to use for
the program. If the station wants that program to come out T1, then they would
map TMAP2 to T1. However, another station uses a mono feed and wants the
same program to come out T2R. That station would map TMAP2 to T2R. When
the program is sent, each station would get the same program out the ports they
assigned.
Again, if audio output on a different port is desired, refer to the TMAP discussion areas of the AMR
manual for details on how to change the TMAP5 and/or TMAP6 physical mapping.
Permissions
If you haven’t already done so, please email your request (including which evening(s) and
release(s) you desire) to air the Harvest Crusade via the AMR-100 to programs@amb-os.com .
Blessings to you!
