GPI and Tally Settings
These settings enable or disable tally signals when connected to an external GPI and tally
interface. Tally lets you monitor on air indicators so you know when an Ultimatte unit is currently
on air. GPI inputs and outputs let you trigger Ultimatte preset files as GPI events, similar in
nature to loading and running macros.
GPIO MENU
The GPI inputs allow external devices to trigger saved setup files in each input in a pre-
determined order. The maximum number of events is defined by the number of GPI inputs,
therefore the number of events you can use is five.
It is also possible for the main unit to trigger events in other devices using the GPI output.
Thistriggering can be done manually, or upon loading a file if the GPI output was saved as
partof that file.
GPI OUT Delay Frames
This control knob sets the delay, in number of frames, between triggering the event and the
execution of the GPI output switch closure. The maximum delay is 120 Frames.
GPI Functions Buttons
You can use the GPI functions buttons to add a GPI output to the current workspace settings,
toggle between low and high GPI output states and provide a programmable state output.
GPI Output Save
In order to initiate a GPI output upon loading a file, the appropriate instructions must besaved
as part of that file. When ‘GPI out save’ is selected, the instructions to trigger a GPI output will
become part of the current workspace settings. When the current workspace settings are
saved as a setup file, the instructions to trigger the GPI output are saved with this file.
When the saved file, which includes the triggering instructions, is loaded into the current
workspace, the triggering instructions will initiate the proper GPI output sequence.
GPI Out Low/High
Clicking this button toggles the GPI output state between low and high.
GPI Out
This provides a programmable state output, whose width and level are dependent on the
GPIout low/high setting and GPI out delay adjustment.
GPI Setup Menu
From the GPI setup menu, you can choose GPI files from the list of previously saved setup files
and load them into each GPI input. You can step through each file to verify that the selected
files were the correct ones, and that the sequence by which these files were listed was correct.
If needed, you can edit each GPI list by removing, adding, or inserting any number of files.
GPI 1 to 5
These windows allows the user to set up the files in the order by which they will be loaded
when triggered by the signal connected to each respective GPI input.
Add
With each click, this button will add the highlighted file in the files list to the selected GPI
events list.
Remove
Click on this button to remove a highlighted file from the selected GPI events list.
