Setting A Gpi Output - Sony XVS-G1 User Manual

Setting a GPI Output

You can configure the trigger type and action for each GPI
output.
GPI output via a network
On GPI outputs via a network, GPI control is performed
using serial tally protocol commands.
GPI outputs can be configured in the same way as parallel
output ports.
Note
This uses a serial tally port, hence the network port must
be configured for a serial tally port.
For details, see "Setting a Serial Tally" (page 345).
