16.3: GPIO MENU
You can congure all available GPIO channels in the GPIO (General Purpose Input Output) tab of the main menu.
However, please note that ‘virtual’ GPIO pins can also be assigned to cues in the cue list via the Snapshot SETUP
page. Virtual GPIO Pins are assigned via the function/parameter setting in the main GPIO settings.
The GPIO card is tted as standard to the Local Rack and Vi Stagebox and provides electrically isolated opto-coupler
inputs with integrated current sink (5 to 24 VDC) and electrically isolated outputs using SPST relay contacts. 5 VDC
and Gnd supply pins are provided. Inputs and outputs are on standard D-type connectors (female).
The main screen shows a list of available GPIO connection ‘pins’ on the selected hardware (console or stage box).
The upper section shown in blue is the GPI (input) section, and the lower section shown in red is the GPO (output)
section. Each entry shows its various congurations across several columns; these are set in the VST section of the
master bay Vistonics.
