Mapping GPO to Playlist events
The Image Server has six General Purpose Outputs, referred to as GPO 1 through GPO 6. Any of
these can be programmed to go active at a pre-determined time, or offset, after the beginning of a
Playlist clip. An active duration can also be set, after which the output again goes inactive. In all
cases, every output will go inactive when a clip ends. By default, a new clip contains no
programmed GPI output commands. Refer to APPENDIX F – GPIO SPECIFICATIONS for details on
electrically interfacing to the GPO lines.
To Map a Playlist event to a GPO Line, Follow these steps.
A. Select EDIT>CONFIGURE->GPO. The screen of Figure 11 is displayed. GPO 1
through 6 are the 6 triggerable outputs. The checkboxes to the right of each selection

expanded.
