Analog Inputs
Eos Family consoles can accept analog input (0-10v or contact closure) from a Net3 I/O Gateway,
or only contact closures from the local ports on Gio, Ion, or Element. For setting up the I/O gateway,
please refer to the Net3 I/O Gateway Setup Guide. For setting up your console’s local ports, see
Port Setup Options, page 7 . Analog inputs are programmed through the show control display,
where each analog event in the event list consists of a port address and an action. Each event list
source references a specific Group ID, which needs to match the ACN Group ID of the I/O Gateway
or the Group ID of the local remote trigger port, and the events communicate to the individual
addresses or inputs within the gateway.
To enable the analog event list, the internal time option must be enabled. This is an enable/disable
function for the entire event list. There is also a global enable for all analog inputs found in Setup.
Analog Input Events
Analog input events can be broken down into two categories; events triggered by a contact closure
and those triggered by 0-10v dimming.
Contact closures will fire an event when input passes a certain level. Events that can be triggered
this way include running a cue, controlling a submaster, and firing a macro.
0-10v dimming can be used to trigger a fader for a submaster.
Create an Analog Event List
Open the show control display.
• [Displays]>>{Show Control} or [Browser]>{Show Control}
Create a new event list.
• [4] [/] [Enter]
Define the type of input.
• [4] [/] {Type} {Analog} [Enter]
Define the source of input.
• [4] [/] {Source} {1} [Enter]
Remember this is the Source ID# of the Gateway.
Specify the event list to be active.
• [1] [/] {Internal} [Enter]
Create an analog input event where an input on address 1 will fire cue 10.
• [4] [/] [1] {Address} [1] [Cue] [1] [0] [Enter]
Remember, if you select the submaster option, you will have an additional option of fader, which will
map the 0-10v input to the level of a specified submaster.
N o t e : As there is no action softkey, pressing [Cue], [Sub], or [Macro] assumes you are
posting to the action field.
