Using GPI input and output triggers
The iDDR provides 6 GPI inputs, and 6 GPI outputs on a single DB-15 pin rear panel
connector. GPI input triggers can be used to control channels including but not limited
to record, play, stop, and skip a playlist event. GPI output triggers can be defined for
channels and inserted in playlists to control external equipment as the list is played.
