Starting, stopping, and refreshing the GPI Server
The GPI Server is a service application which must be started and running for the GPI
inputs to perform their defined playout control actions. Similarly, if you make any changes
to the settings on the GPI Server Control Panel, the GPI Server must be restarted
(refreshed) for these new settings to be applied to the hardware.
The current state of the GPI Server is always displayed in the GPI Control Panel’s S
ERVICE
S TATUS field (figure 9-7 ). As well, you can control the starting, stopping, and restarting of
the GPI Server using the S TART , S TOP , and R EFRESH buttons.
