Digital Alert Systems: DASDEC User Manual

   

GPI Output #2 can be programmed to make a contact closure during:

1. EAS audio play-out.
2. Momentary closure at start of EAS Audio play-out.
3. Momentary closure at end of EAS Audio play-out.
4. Momentary closure at start and end of EAS Audio play-out.
5. EAS Video play-out.
6. Main Serial Port protocol play-out of EAS.
7. While an active decoded alert that has not been forwarded (pending Manual Forward). (Requires
Plus Package license)

8. While an unforwarded active decoded alert is unacknowledged. (Requires Plus Package license)
9. Holding of an alert until GPI input 1 is closed. (Requires Plus Package license)
10. Delaying of an alert while GPI input 1 is closed.
11. Play-out of voice dub alert origination. (Requires Plus Package license)


GPIO Output 2 Activation Filter Configurations

Choose the FIPS and EAS codes that will control which alerts trigger the applicable programmed GPIO
output 2 relay.


GPIO Pending Alert Activation Filter Configuration


Choose FIPS and EAS codes that control which active pending alerts trigger the GPIO Output 2 for states
‘Pending manual forward of decoded EAS` or `Momentarily at start of unforwarded, decoded EAS’ or to
control which alerts are forwarded when GPIO input 1 is set to `Forward active decoded EAS upon closure’.

This interface is only present when the GPI Input #1 is programmed to Forward a pending active decoded
alert,
or when the GPIO #2 output is set to close upon an active unforwarded alert. This interface allows
creation of FIPS & EAS code filtering criteria to be applied to the programmed GPI input action or to be
applied to an alert that would trigger the GPIO #2 relay closure. Use this interface to narrow down active
alerts that will be forwarded upon GPI input contact closure or to narrow which active unforwarded alerts
trigger a relay closure. The GPIO filtering criteria can be optionally overridden from the Manual Forward
Control
option to allow application of the Auto-Forwarding filter to GPI triggered manual alerts under the
Setup > Decoder page. To use the interface, select the Edit FIPS and Edit EAS Codes buttons to enter
Edit mode and display the various code selection controls. All selections are active once the respective code
Editing Finished button is clicked.

With thought and careful design, GPIO relays and inputs can be used to tie the operation of the DASDEC II
into most broadcast automation systems.

NOTE: Only active with Plus Package license.

Note: If GPIO Input 1 is programmed to hold an alert, simply changing the setting to 1, 2,
or 4 above will release the hold, and the alert will be forwarded/originated.
