Input
The tally inputs expect contact closure to ground, through the ground pins on the
connector, to trigger a GPI input event.

When the input transitions off or transitions on, the NV9680 notifies the GV-Orbit Server,
which carries out the task defined for the input (if a task has been configured).
During contact closure, a current of 1.2mA flows. A maximum of 48VDC can be applied to
the tally input for less than 5 seconds without failure. No voltage above 5VDC should be
continuously applied.
Output
A tally output is a solid state relay (no audible click) with a maximum resistance of 10 and
current capability of 150mA. It can withstand 200VAC.

Fig. 5-3: GPI Output
When a condition (defined for the relay) occurs, GV-Orbit Server notifies the NV9680 which
then opens or closes the relay. The relay switches the connected circuit on or off. This does
not power the circuit. You must provide a power source for the circuit.
