Setting Up A Gpi Event List - Blackmagicdesign Ultimatte 12 Operation Manual

Reset
Pressing this button will select the top file from the GPI files list without loading the first
file. The first file will be loaded when the first GPI pulse is detected.
GPI Input Enable
This checkbox enables or disables individual GPI inputs separately based on the
setting of the GPI input select control.
GPI High Enable
Enables the software to detect either low to high or high to low transitions of the
GPI inputs.
The GPI inputs are triggered by the logic level of the input signal, not by the transition
edges. If GPI high enable is checked, the selected input will be triggered by a high
logic state. If GPI high is not checked, the selected input will be triggered by a low
logic state.
GPI IN Delay
This is a delay between detecting a GPI input and that of actual execution of the GPI
list. The GPI input delay can be set at different values for each input. The maximum
delay is 120 Frames.
Close
Selecting this button will close the window and exit the GPI setup menu.

Setting Up a GPI Event List

To set up an event list, preset files must be previously created and saved. Refer to the 'saving
and loading preset files' section form more information.
1 Tap the 'configure' menu button to go to configuration settings and select 'GPI setup'
in the groups section. The GPI setup window will be displayed.
2 From the tabs, select a GPI number from 1 to 5 to be used. If the selected GPI number
was used before, the event list will show the previously selected files. The existing
event list can be edited by removing, adding or inserting files. Alternately, select
'remove all' to remove all the files from the event list.
3 Select the file to be added to the event list. When selected, the file will be highlighted.
4 Press the 'add' button to add the file to the event list.
5 To add more files to the event list, repeat steps 3 and 4.
When the event list is complete, press 'reset' to move the pointer to the beginning of the event
list. Adjust GPI input delay if necessary. This is the delay, in frames, when loading the files from
the time the GPI pulse is received.
1 For high GPI input logic state, select the 'GPI high enable' checkbox. Leave deselected
if using a low logic state.
2 Enable GPI by tapping the GPI input enable checkbox.
3 Repeat these steps for each GPI input.
To edit an existing events list:
1 Tap the GPI event number to be edited.
2 Select a file to be deleted by tapping the file name on the display and tapping the
'remove' button.
3 To insert a new file into the event list, tap the file below the area in the list you want
to insert the new file. Now tap the 'insert' button.
4 When editing is completed, tap 'reset' to select the beginning file of the event list,
then tap 'close' to exit the GPI setup window.
