General Purpose Interface (GPI) (DB-9M)

This DB9-male connector serves as a four-input, optoisolated interface to the Omnia's internal trigger script
functions. Four of the pins are “trigger” inputs, four are “ground” and the remaining pin is +5V power. The trigger
inputs can be used to dynamically alter the OmniaONE’s operation in response to logic transitions on the interface
connection. Virtually any parameter of the Omnia can be controlled using the Trigger Scripts.

The Trigger Script Interface Editor is a standard component of the OmniaONE Remote Control application and is
covered in detail in Appendix C.

Please note that the Remote Control and Trigger Script functionality are not yet implemented in the current software
but will be available with a free downloadable software update. Please check the Omnia website for new software
announcements, download links and manual updates at:

not complete for several more seconds and a small audio glitch may be heard when the final sample rate converter
initialization is complete. Once the boot process is finished the following Main Menu will appear:
