Virtual GPIO Settings Web Page
The Virtual GPIO Se�ngs page shows the current configura�on of the 10
virtual GPIO ports. These virtual ports provide a method of controlling
func�ons on remote units by linking a virtual output on one unit to a virtual
input on another unit.

vGPIO Select
– This drop down list selects the virtual GPIO port to view and
change se�ngs.
Type
– This op�on selects whether the selected virtual GPIO port is an
input, an output or whether it is disabled.
Input Function
– This op�on selects the required func�on that the selected
virtual GPIO input controls. This list includes GPO 1 – 10 which allows a
virtual GPIO input to control a physical GPIO output. Please note, if a GPO
port is selected, the type op�on for that GPIO port must be set to output.
This op�on is only available when the type is set to input.
Input Driver Source
– This se�ng is the name of the virtual GPIO output on
a remote unit that will drive the virtual GPIO input on this unit. These
source names are generated automa�cally based on the source type and
the intercom name. For example, for virtual output port 1 on an intercom
unit with the name “DEMO-SOURCE”, the source name would be
“VGPO1@DEMO-SOURCE”. This name can be entered manually, or it can be
selected from the dynamic list of available vGPO sources detailed below.
This op�on is only available when the type is set to input.
Available vGPO Sources
– This dynamic drop down list shows the virtual
GPIO outputs that are currently visible on the network and available for
selec�on as an input driver source. Selec�ng a source from this list places
the virtual GPIO output name into the input driver source edit box. This
op�on is only available when the type is set to input.
Output Trigger
– This op�on selects the func�on that triggers the virtual
GPIO output. This list includes GPI 1 – 10 which allows a physical GPIO input
to trigger a virtual GPIO output. Please note, if a GPI port is selected, the
type op�on for that GPIO port must be set to input otherwise the virtual
output will not be triggered. This op�on is only available when the type is
set to output.
