of an SIU.
GPI timeline
For a keyframe effect controlled from the control panel,
the GPI timeline allows you to set an action (setting a
trigger output from a particular GPI output port) at a
keyframe point on the GPI timeline. At any keyframe
point, you can make a maximum of eight GPI output port
settings.
GPI timeline actions
The actions that can be used on the GPI timeline are as
follows.
• SIU GPI output port
Creating and Editing the GPI
Timeline
You can set actions at keyframe points on the GPI
timeline. Up to eight GPI output ports that output a trigger
pulse can be configured.
For details about keyframe creation, see "Creating and
Editing Keyframes" (page 309).
For the action settings (GPI timeline editing), use the
Device menu.
The data set in the Device menu can be saved in a
keyframe effect register. Recalling the register starts
execution of the keyframe effect, and when this reaches the
keyframe point at which actions are set, a trigger pulse is
output to external devices from the GPI output port.
