OPERATING INSTRUCTIONS
4.8.5. Configuring the General Purpose Outputs
The 5010 has two general purpose outputs that can be assigned to several different functions. These
outputs will be active low when the specified condition occurs. 5010 units with serial numbers before
06990000 may have driver integrated circuits that invert the sense of the general purpose outputs. If
your unit has active high outputs and you desire active low outputs, contact the factory. The duration of
the output is user programmable.
The
GPO1 ASSIGN and GPO2 ASSIGN
menu items on the CONFIGURATION Engineering Setup
menu are used to select the functions of the general purpose outputs.
GEN TIME EVENT:
The output will activate when the generator time matches the GEVT register and
the event register is armed. See section 4.8.6 for information about setting the
GEVT register and arming it.
RDR TIME EVENT:
The output will activate when the reader time matches the REVT register and the
event register is armed. See section 4.8.6 for information about setting the
REVT register and arming it.
1 PULSE/SEC:
The output will activate at the beginning of each second of the generator time.
1 PULSE/MIN:
The output will activate at the beginning of each minute of the generator time.
REF FAIL ALARM:
The output will activate when a proper Genlock video reference is missing.
LTC FAIL ALARM:
The output will activate when the LTC is missing. (When the LTC LED is Off)
VITC FAIL ALARM:
The output will activate when the VITC is missing. (When the VITC LED is Off)
4.8.6. Setting the Time of the Event Registers
When one of the GPO assignments is set to GEN TIME EVENT the output activates based on the time
entered into the GEVT register. When one of the GPO assignments is set to RDR TIME EVENT the
output activates based on the time entered into the REVT register.
To access the GEVT and REVT registers press the
SHIFT+DISPLAY
buttons one or more times until
the display prompt is
GEVT
or
REVT
. The
ENTER
and
CLEAR
keys are used in conjunction with the
numeric keys to set the value stored in the event registers. Enter a valid time into the desired register
following the same method used to enter the generator time.
