Monitoring
You can enable the GPI-8941 card to generate reports on the status of each GPI. Use the settings in the Report tab to
control how or if the status messages are sent to the external devices.
Monitoring the GPI Input Status
Reports can be generated on the RossTalk commands, or Serial commands. If you enable reporting, the card reports
on the GPI Input events for the specified input. For edge-triggered GPI inputs, the card reports can report both
rising and falling edges. For level-triggered GPI inputs, the state is OFF or ON (the polarity is defined in the section
“
Configuring a GPI Input ” on page 49).

If the GPI All Configuration box is selected in the Config tab, you can change the settings for all GPI Inputs on
the Report tab.
