Harris provide news automation system for CNN+ Madrid

CNN+ Madrid, a subsidiary of Spainish pay TV group, Sogecable, have installed a Harris ADC-100 automation system in their busy newsroom.
The installation marks the first interface between the Harris automation system and an Avid Inews newsroom computer system.
The Harris ADC-100 automation system remotely controls VTRs and streams from Avid’s AirSpace video servers. Records are generated on AirSpace through two Harris Media Client applications. Using ActiveX plug-ins, Harris provide seven Media Explorer application software tools that are inserted into the Inews software window. This allows multiple editors to simultaneously create the rundown and a placeholder in the automation database.
Media Explorer displays the database hierarchy and list view, and the entire automation system is connected to an SQL database. Harris AirNews ADC 100 application software interfaces with the Avid Inews utilizing MOS protocol.
During the preparation process, Harris AirNews provides automatic conversion of preparation rundown to create a dub list in the automation system.
For broadcasting, this means that AirNews rundowns generated into Inews are dynamically and automatically transferred into the Harris automation system and are then inserted directly into the transmission list, so that they can be broadcast immediately.
