The GPI is the General Purpose Interface device that can be connected to the XT
server. The GPI signals, i.e. electric signals, generated by the GPI device allow
the operator to:
• receive commands from a third-party device to the XT[2] server. These are Input
GPIs our GPIs IN.
GPIs IN can be used in the Playlist panel.
OR
• send commands from the XT[2] server to a third-party device via given
IPDirector applications. These are Output GPIs or GPIs OUT.
GPIs OUT can be used in the Playlist panel and in IPEdit.

In IPEdit, you can define up to four GPIs OUT. The IPEdit module and the Playlist
panel have to share these four GPIs OUT.
Important
In the current version, IPDirector does not prevent the operator from
using the same GPI OUT to the Playlist panel and in IPEdit. This is up to
the administrators and operators to manage the use of GPIs OUT.
