2 RJ45 connector (1-16 Ports)
The Easi-PiCo has 36 RJ sockets for connecting the matrix to the panels and
interfaces these sockets are referred to as "Ports". Only the first 16 ports
(1-16) will be active for the Easi-PiCo.
3 RJ45 connector (17-36Ports)
Ports 17-36 are covered but can be activated and accessed if the matrix is
upgraded to an Eclipse PiCo by purchasing the upgrade license key.
4 General Purpose Output connector
The male 25-pin D-type socket labelled "GP OUT" allows you to connect
the Easi PiCo matrix to eight general purpose outputs (GPOs). General-pur-
pose outputs are single-pole double-throw relays with contact ratings of 30
VDC (volts direct current) at 1 ampere.
A general purpose output or "relay" is a switch that you control remotely.
Each of the four map configurations uses the GPO (relay) to close a contact
whenever the RLY key is pressed on a panel. When the contact is closed it
completes an electronic circuit's signal path so that a remote device, such as a
light, is powered.
You can program a GPO to mute a speaker, to turn on an applause light, to
turn on a door lock, or to perform a variety of other functions. For example,
to get the attention of a station operator working in a high-noise environ-
ment such as a control booth, you can program a relay to switch on a light at
his station each time he receives an incoming call, to ensure that he will not
miss the call.
Note: In the default configuration maps the following GPOs have been
programmed
Panel #1 will activate GPO#1 when the RLY key on panel #1 is pressed.
Panel #2 will activate GPO#2 when the RLY key on panel #2 is pressed.
Panel #3 will activate GPO#3 when the RLY key on panel #3 is pressed.
…..
Panel #8 will activate GPO#8 when the RLY key on panel #8 is pressed.
