5th Step: Input/Output Sets

The controlling Maestro would be configured to send a “Transition in Prog-
ress” signal (that is, by closing a GPO port relay) to indicate that the
Maestro has initiated a Take.

The controlled Maestro would be configured to accept a “Transition” signal
and respond by executing a Take command.

Maestro Configuration

The GPIO Definition table is used to configure the GPIO ports on the rear
panel of the Maestro. The table is located in the Input/Output Sets group
of the Maestro Configuration Editor. When the GPIO Definition table is
first opened, the editor will open a set panel. Create a name for the GPIO
table, select an Input Set (only required for Source Tally), then select “New.”
(The table is assigned to a Maestro channel using the Channel Setup table.)
