Setting Parallel Output Ports; Assigning A Gpi Output; Setting A Gpi Output - Sony MLS-X1 User Manual

Setting Parallel Output
Ports
The use of parallel output ports is assigned in the
following priority sequence.
1. Tally settings in the Home > Setup > Router/Tally
> Tally > Parallel Tally menu (19106.26).
Tally output is assigned to the selected parallel output
port.
2. GPI output port settings in the Home > Setup >
External Device > Output Config menu (19105.31).
GPI output settings are configured for parallel output
ports not used for tally output.
GPI output is also supported via a network. The GPI
output port settings are the same as for parallel output
ports.
For details, see "GPI output via a network" (page 427).

Assigning a GPI Output

1
Open the Home > Setup > External Device > Output
Config menu (19105.31).
A list of parallel output ports is shown on the left and
a list of GPI outputs is shown on the right.
2
In the list on the left, select the target parallel output
port to set.
The number for a parallel output port is displayed in
"logical box ID (1 to 3) -board (1 to 3) -number (1 to
6)" format (for example, "1-3-6").
Note
Ports on boards 2 and 3 can be used when an
MKS-X1700 Legacy Interface Board (option) is
installed.
3
In the list on the right, select a GPI output to assign.
4
Press the [Set] button.
To release a GPI output assignment
Select the target parallel output port to release and press
the [No Assign] button.

Setting a GPI Output

You can configure the trigger type and action for each
GPI output.
GPI output via a network
On GPI outputs via a network, GPI control is performed
using serial tally protocol commands.
GPI outputs can be configured in the same way as parallel
output ports.
Note
This uses a serial tally port, hence the network port must
be configured for a serial tally port.
For details, see "Setting a Serial Tally" (page 439).
1
Open the Home > Setup > External Device > GPI
Output Assign menu (19105.41).

duration.
Any Edge: When a trigger occurs, the output toggles
between high level and low level.
Status: The output toggles between high level and
