Query GPI
An eBOX GPI8 sends a GPI Status message in any of the
following cases:
•
whenever any of its GPI Inputs change states,
•
periodically every 5 seconds or,
•
when a GPI Query command is received.
Clicking the Query GPI button sends a GPI Query command to the
connected eBOX GPI8 causing the eBOX GPI8 to immediately
return the states of its GPI Inputs. Clicking the Query GPI button
is a good way to verify that the eBOX GPI8 GPI Tester Utility is
still connected to the eBOX GPI8 under test.
Note: The eBOX GPI8 GPI Utility does not use the Password
protection feature of the eBOX GPI8 so that feature will have to be
disabled by setting DIP switch 6 to the ‘ON’ position.
