Installation

GPI Outputs 1 and 2

The General Purpose Interface (GPI) outputs 1 and 2 are configured in soft-
ware using the menus described in

GPI Outputs 1 and 2 on page 23

to

provide any of the following functions:

Loss of genlock input

Loss of external 10MHz reference

Line lock error

Field lock error

Subcarrier lock error

Illegal input ScH

Diagnostic state alert

Currently locked to external 10MHz

Currently locked to external genlock

Currently internal/freerun mode

The GPI outputs are single-ended open collector outputs with a
50V/200mA rating not to exceed 600 mW. The two GPI outputs are pin 17
and pin 21 as listed in

Table 1 on page 21

. It is intended that the GPO be

activated when one or more of the above conditions is true (for example,
loss of genlock input and/or line lock error).

To use an output, a load should be connected between the output and an
external power supply, with the negative end of the power supply con-
nected back to the ground pin on the 25 pin Sub-D connector.

As an alternate to an external power supply, a +12V, 300mA feed is avail-
able on pin 10 of the Sub-D connector.
