GPI Output Connections
For secondary external DVEs, the Synergy switcher is able to use GPI output pulses to trigger
selected functions on the DVE (for example, run forward, run reverse, and stop).
Use the following procedure to connect and program GPI output connections:
1. Ensure that your Standard GPI Output Worksheet is fully completed, as outlined in
the section “ Standard GPI Setup ” on page 9-22.
2. Ensure that your GPI outputs are properly wired from the Synergy switcher to the GPI
input port on your secondary external DVE. Refer to the section “ Standard GPI Setup ”
on page 9-22 for more information.
3. Using the information from your Standard GPI Output Worksheet , follow all
instructions in the section “ Programming Standard GPI Outputs ” on page 9-29. In
this section, you will name each GPI output, and set up specific output parameters such
as trigger type and level.
4. Refer to the documentation for your DVE for instructions on assigning the external
DVE’s GPI input ports to specific operational functions.
This completes the procedure to connect and program GPI outputs.
Remote Control Connections
The Synergy switcher provides powerful remote control capability for the primary external DVE,
allowing you to use the “
DVE Send ” mode to perform fast and simple DVE transitions from the
switcher panel. In this mode, when you set up a DVE Send transition, you are electronically routing a
specific set of signals from the selected MLE to the DVE for processing — and then back into the
MLE for Keying. The mode also allows you to recall DVE effects from the switcher panel.
Use the figure below for reference in the following procedures:
Synergy Series Frame, Rear View — DVE Ports 1 and 2
Use the following procedure to connect remote control to the primary external DVE:
1. Connect a serial cable between the DVE 1 port on the switcher and the appropriate port
on your external DVE. Refer to the documentation for your DVE for instructions on
connecting communications.
2. If your primary external DVE includes a second channel that requires its own unique
connection, connect a serial cable between the DVE 2 port on the switcher and the
appropriate port on your external DVE. Refer to the documentation for your DVE for
instructions on connecting communications.
Refer to the section “ DVE Functions ” on page 13-37 for details on establishing communications with
the primary external DVE.
