The entry for a given GPI control device must contain an IP address and port, password, and custom name,
entered as follows:
< device name=”name “ ip=”###.###.###.###” port=”##” password=” “/>
At the time of writing, the xml ‘element name’ signified above by the placeholder device should be
“jlcooper”, without the quotation marks.
The value for the “name” attribute that follows is a custom name of your choosing.
Hint: Normally, connected GPI devices are identified by unique names in this file; otherwise (if GPI devices
share a single name) GPI commands are issued to them simultaneously.
The remaining configuration attributes (“ip”, “port” and “password”) are set at the external hardware device
(refer to the vendor’s documentation for details); the corresponding values need only be transferred into the
XML configuration file.
A typical entry might look like this:
<jlcooper name=”JLCooper1” ip=”192.168.128.102” port=”23” password=””/>

RIGGERS
Configured and connected GPI interface devices can trigger macros just like a keyboard shortcut, control
surface, or MIDI button operation can.
To assign a GPI trigger to a macro, simply click a ‘gesture field’ in the Shortcuts group at the bottom of the
Macro Configuration panel, then send the desired external GPI trigger to the system. The ‘listening’ control
will recorded the GPI signal, and a suitable shortcut entry will be displayed.

OMMANDS
A special macro command allows you to send GPI signals to external devices and systems via network-
connected GPI interface devices (such as the eBOX™ from JLCooper Electronics).
GPI macro entries are formatted as shown below:
Delay (ms) Shortcut Value Key 1 Value 1 etc.
#### gpi name GPI_pin# boolean

Delay – the interval, in milliseconds, between the time when the command on the prior line (if any)
was issued to the system, and execution of this line.

Shortcut – Use the entry “gpi” in this field to send a GPI signal.
