Using the GPIO Port
In the Venue Explorer menu on the left, click the arrow to expand the device and reveal a list of objects. Expand an object for a list of state variables (SV’s) within the object.
To assign an SV to a Control port input channel, click on the SV in the Venue Explorer menu and drag it to the Parameter Assignment field for either Input 1 or Input 2. See
Figure 53:
The current preset has been assigned for recall via Control port Input 1
Once an SV has been added, its type will determine which options become available in the Mode field. If a binary SV has been assigned, only the Direct Action mode is
selectable, and the On Value and Off Value parameters can be toggled as desired. However, if a non-binary SV is added, the Analog Input mode becomes available. In this
mode, the High Limit and Low Limit parameters become available instead. The High Limit and Low Limit parameters allow control of an SV over a specified range.
TIP:
Additional SV's can be added to a given control input by selecting the SV and dragging it on top of a previously assigned row of the desired input (see
However, once an SV has been assigned and the Mode parameter has been set, any subsequent SV that is added must function in the same mode. Up to 40 SV’s can be
assigned to a given input.

An assigned SV can be removed by highlighting it and then selecting
