prioritization based on the organization's discretion (for example, severe
weather alerts out-prioritizing school closings). Alert tones are inserted over
the main program channels to alert the visually impaired that emergency
content is to occur on the SAP channel. Alerts can be played a configurable
number of times, and alerts with higher priority can interrupt current lists for
breaking news. Once the interrupt message is broadcast,

the card as to the action to take upon an event (such as go to a changed signal
routing, activate a GPO, send an automated email, or go to a user-defined
preset).
GPI Interface
Two independent ground-closure sensing GPI inputs (
sharing common ground connection as chassis potential) are available.
Associated with each GPI user control is a selection of one of 32 user-defined
card presets in which GPI activation invokes a card control preset. Because
the GPI closure invokes a user-defined preset, the resulting setup is highly
flexible and totally user-defined. Invoking a user preset to effect a change
involves card setup communication limited only to the items being changed;
the card remains on-line during the setup, and the called preset is rapidly
applied.
GPI triggering can be user selected to consider the activity on discrete GPI
ports, or combinations of logic states considering both GPI inputs, as well as
be set for level or edge triggering. This flexibility allows multistage,
progressive actions to be invoked if desired. Indication is provided showing
whenever a GPI input has been invoked.
GPO Interface
Two independent phototransistor non-referenced (floating) contact pairs
( and ) are available. A GPO can be invoked by setting a GPO
GPO 1/1 GPO 2/2
to be enabled when a card preset is in turn applied (i.e., when a preset is
invoked (either manually or via event-based loading), the GPO is
correspondingly also activated.
