Virtual GPI objects
The V IRTUAL GPI object allows you to control up to 18 GPI triggers that are
configured for the specified device(s).
When the Virtual GPI’s A
RMABLE property is set to T RUE , you can arm one or
several of the Virtual GPI buttons by simply clicking the individual buttons,
which turns them from grey (disarmed) to red (armed). They will remain it this
state until the T
AKE button is clicked, at which time the operations associated
with the armed GPI buttons will be carried out.

Voice Over button objects
The V OICE O VER B UTTON object is a toggle switch that allows you to cut up or
down the loaded audio file or external audio on the specified device(s).
In Production mode, the Voice Over Button appears red when the voice over is
active (i.e. playing) and grey when it is not.
When the Voice Over button’s A
RMABLE property is set to T RUE , an Arm LED
appears next to the Voice Over button (see page 4-24 ). Clicking the Voice Over
button toggles the button between its armed state (Arm LED active) and
disarmed state (Arm LED inactive).
The example below demonstrates that VO 1 is currently up (red), but it is armed
to be cut down when the T
AKE button is clicked. VO 2 is not currently on air
(grey), but it is armed to cut up when the T AKE button is clicked. VO 3 is also
currently off air (grey), but since it is not armed (the LED is inactive), its state
will remain unchanged when the Take button is clicked.
