Configure Net GPIO Connection
Following is a brief description of the client interface controls.
Select client: Use the pull-down menu to select the client interface to examine or configure.
[ ] Listen for Net GPIO Input. When Enabled this checkbox causes the DASDEC II server to listen for input
contact closures from the Net GPIO units. This option only works if at least one of the connected Online Net
GPIO units supports inputs. As of DASDEC II version 8.0, only the Web Relay Dual unit supports inputs. Only
enable this option when an input from a Net GPIO unit is required.
Because a Net GPIO unit must be continually queried via HTTP for an input contact closure, this option is slow
compared to GPIO input hardware that is directly a part of the DASDEC II. Thus this option requires the contact
closure to last for at least one second in order to be detected.
Add/Duplicate/Delete NetGPIO Client Interface Buttons You can create configurations for up to 8 Net GPIO
clients.
 If no client configurations exist, or if you want a new one, click the button to
create a new interface configuration.
 To delete a client configuration, select the client and click on .
 To duplicate an existing client interface (a different name will be automatically generated), select the
button. This is the best way to create many client interfaces that are
mostly the same except for the IP address.
Careful! Net GPIO client configuration addition, duplication, and deletion are immediate and
cannot be canceled.
