Serial Ports Parity / Type

This parameter is not used in the eBOX GPI8.

GPI Pins

These are the pins on the GPI Input connector.

Commands

These are the commands that are sent when the GPI input is
triggered. The command can be triggered on either transition
which is set by the invert checkbox described below. Each byte
must be a two digit hexadecimal number.

Invert

Normally messages are triggered when a GPI input pin is shorted
to ground. Checking this box allows the messages to be triggered
when a GPI input pin is opened or is driven to +5 volts.

Send to Ports

This parameter is not used in the eBOX GPI8.

Send to eBOX GPI8

Clicking this button downloads all the parameters to the eBOX
GPI8. During the download, the eBOX GPI8 will momentarily
stop responding to GPI inputs. This is normal. The message
mapping will be effective immediately. However, changes to the
IP settings take effect after a power cycle.
