GPI Control
General Purpose Interface (GPI) is a high/low voltage
signalling protocol that allows the switcher to send
simple commands to an external device, or receive
commands from a device. Each pin on the GPI is set
as either high (+5 Volts), or low (0 Volts), and it is the
switching between high and low that sends commands
to the external device, or to the switcher.
GPI Trigger Types
There are four trigger types supported by the switcher.
These can be either output triggers, or input triggers.
Table 6: Trigger Types

remains at this level until reset.

The output toggles from
the base low level to the
high level. The output signal
remains at this level until reset.
GPI Setup
Each GPI pin on the switcher can be configured as
either an input, or an output. By default, all GPIs are
set as inputs.
To Set Up a GPI Input
The switcher requires a Low Edge GPI input trigger.
