In IPEdit, you can define up to eight GPIs OUT. The IPEdit module and the Playlist
panel have to share these eight GPIs OUT.
Important
IPDirector does not prevent the operator from using the same GPI OUT
to the Playlist panel and in IPEdit. This is up to the administrators and
operators to manage the use of GPIs OUT.

When the speed of an element is different than 100%, you cannot add new GPIs to
the element or modify existing ones. However, you can delete the GPIs.
When you modify the speed of an element which already contained a GPI, the GPI
remains defined on the same TC as before.
