Gpios  

For a detailed hardware definition see paragraph 6.4. 

  Action taken by the General Purpose Inputs are:
  Input level Up/Down /ON-OFF. Each logic transition makes a step of 0,5 dB change up or down on the 

selected input channels. ON-OFF produces a changeover of the input channel mute on-off switch.

  Inputs ON. Forces to On the selected input channels. Not  works as changeover. 
  Inputs OFF. Forces to Off the selected input channels. Not  works as changeover.
  Outputs level Up/Down/ON-OFF. Each logic transition makes a step of 0,5 dB change up or down on the 

selected output channels. ON-OFF makes a changeover of the output channel mute on-off switch.

  Outputs ON. Forces to On the selected output channels. Not  works as changeover. 
  Outputs OFF. Forces to Off the selected output channels. Not  works as changeover.

Routing level Up/Down.  Each logic transition makes a step of 0,5 dB change up or down in the selected 

   routing.

Routing Select. Toggles the selected routing inputs to selected outputs from On (0 dB) to OFF (-oo) and 

             viceversa. By checking 

Stereo

 option enables a duo combination. In 

Exclusive mode

 only 

the last selected remains active, cancelling the other routings. 

  Preset Recall. Recalls the selected preset number 1 to 10.
  Plays Voice Message. Plays the selected Voice Message 1 to 5. Repeat mode allows a continuous loop.

           See the 7.1.5 VOICE MESSAGES PANEL for additional information.

Gpio Out ON. Forces the selected gpio output 1 to 4 to ON. Does not changeover.
Gpio Out OFF. Forces the selected gpio output 1 to 4 to OFF. Does not changeover.

   Gpio Out ON/OFF. Toggles the selected gpio output 1 to 4 from ON to OFF or viceversa making 

      changeover.

Action taken by the General Purpose Outputs are:
Input On/OFF. The gpio output reflects the status of the selected input channel (1 to 12). When channel in 

            ON, the gpio out is active (logic 1, conducting). When in OFF the gpio is inactive (0, open)

Input Signal Same as above when the channel reaches signal presence.(Signal higher than  -40 dBu). 
Input Peak   Same as above when the channel reaches peak level. (Signal higher than  +14.5 dBu).
Output On/OFF The gpio output reflects the status of the selected output channel (1 to 8/16). When 

channel in ON, the gpio out is active (logic 1, conducting), OFF the gpio is inactive (0, open)

Output Signal Same as above when the channel reaches signal presence. (Signal higher than  -40 dBu). 
Output Peak Same as above when the channel reaches peak level. (Signal higher than  +14,5 dBu). 
Gpio/Remote/Schedule. The gpio output reflects the status of the Remote key or the Scheduled task.

This featured is useful for remote curtain opening or for a scheduled action as light dim.

Ethernet link. The gpio reflects whenever the connection to the MAP is carried by Ethernet connection.
USB link. The gpio reflects whenever the connection to the MAP is carried by USB connection.

Schedule Task

. The MAP incorporates a RTC real time clock to allow for shutting different type of scheduled 

actions. You can define up to 40 actions to be made each day of the week.   

Action  Inputs ON, Inputs OFF, Outputs ON, Outputs OFF, Routing Select, Preset Recall, play Voice 
Messages, Gpio out ON, Gpio out OFF. These action are the same as in gpio section above. 
Input Channels. The affected channels on the action taken
Active The chosen action is active now, or not active.
Date/Time. Sets the rtc time manually or copied from the computer clock. 
Week days. Days of the week when the action will be processed.
Clear. Clears all the parameters on the list.
Schedule File:   Load and Save schedule configuration files in the computer. 
Schedule Edit:   Copy and Paste configuration options.

Remote Controls

. Up to 32 wall remotes can be connected in daisy chain to the processor. See 6.3 paragraph 

for additional information. Consult appendix A1 for more help.

First window will show a graphical list of the remote controls recognized by the processor showing the 

name given at the installation time enumerated from 0 to 31.

In the case that a remote has been connected after the processor initialization (the remote has been 

connected to the remote network when the processor is running) or in maintenance tasks, you can at any time 
select the 

Search

  button to make a network analysis. Select the appropriate remote to check or re-set it.

In the properties window, select an option as below:
