GPI Outputs

– The buttons in the scrolling list represent the physical GPI

output relays available on the Karrera system. The functions performed by
these relays depend on how they have been connected to the device being
controlled. One output can be selected at a time.

GPI Name

– Touching this button opens an alphanumeric keypad used to

give the GPI Output a descriptive name. These names appear on the sepa-
rate Devices, GPI Outputs and PBus & GPI Enables Menus, to help the
operator identify each function.

Suite

– A GPI can be assigned to Suite 1 or Suite 2 (the name of each suite

may be different from that shown in the figure). To change the suite assign-
ment, select the GPI Output in the scrolling list, unassign it from its current
suite with the

Unassign GPI

button, select the other

Suite

button, and then

touch the

Assign GPI

button.

Unassign GPI

– Clears the suite assignment for that GPI, making it possible to

reassign it to the other suite.

Assign GPI

– Assigns the GPI to the

Suite

selected above.

Duration

– Sets the duration the relay will be closed, in video frames.
