GENERAL PURPOSE INPUT/OUTPUT (GPIO)
The EAS platform comes standard with two General Purpose Input (GPI) contact
closures and two General Purpose Output (GPO) relays. They are located in the upper
middle of the back panel
(3)
via a 7-pin pluggable terminal connector.
GPIO Terminal Connector
GPO relay outputs are programmable. Triggering can be filtered against specific alert
FIPS Groups and EAS Group codes. Events that can trigger a GPO relay include:
•
Remain closed during EAS audio playout
•
Momentarily closed at start of EAS audio playout
•
Momentarily closed at start of an alert that has been decoded but not forwarded,
• Remain closed if an alert is held or delayed pending a GPI action.
The EAS device comes with two General Purpose Input (GPI) contact closures. They can
be programmed to trigger a variety of actions, such as:
•
Issue a Required Weekly test
• Trigger origination of an alert header/attention signal, pausing for voice dub of the
audio message, followed by trigger of the EOM audio
• Review of audio portion of an active alert
• Active alert acknowledgment
• Re-enabling of active alert forwarding capability
•
Forwarding of a monthly test with original audio
Additional Expansion GPIO Options
For installations that require additional GPIs and GPOs, there are several options
available that will expand the standard capabilities. An internal GPIO card may
be installed in the PCI expansion slot
(6)
to enable eight additional GPIs and eight
additional GPOs. If the PCI expansion slot is not available, there are several network
connected GPIO devices, such as the R190a Remote LAN Hub Controller / Net GPIO.
The One-Net and DASDEC platforms can mix and match any combination of internal
and network connected GPIO devices.
