To Set Up a GPI Input

The switcher requires a Low Edge GPI input trigger.

  1. Click Navigation Menu > Configuration > Tally and GPIO > GPIO.


    Tip:
    The field next to the Edit button shows the current state of the GPI input (High/Low). High is the resting state. The GPI input must be taken low to trigger.
  2. Click Edit for the GPI that you want to configure as an input.
  3. Click GPI.


  4. Click a Level button to select that state the GPI should be in to trigger an event. You can have events trigger on both High and Low.
    • Low — the event is triggered when the GPI goes low.
    • High — the event is triggered when the GPI goes high.
  5. Click the Event button for the action you want to assign to the selected GPI input pin.
