Appendix 2: GPI Out
The SE-1200 MU can control external recorder/playback devices via simple contact closure GPI switch.
The GPI interface is a 3.5mm Jack Socket which is situated on the rear panel of the SE-1200 MU.
Contact closure between the Outer and Inner contacts on the jack plug will trigger a user selected event.
Power is supplied by the SE-1200 MU and is less than 5V DC.
This GPI socket can also be used as a socket to trigger record or playback events with other equipment
such as the Datavideo HDR-70 recorder.
SAFETY FIRST
The cabling required needs to be designed specifically to connect the SE-1200 MU to the
chosen record or playback device as they are not all the same. The cabling required can be made by
yourself or a competent technician. Please speak with your Dealer or local Datavideo office to get further
help and advice.
