Chapter 25 External Device Setup; Setting Parallel Input Ports; Assigning A Gpi Input - Sony MLS-X1 User Manual

External Device Setup
Copying External Device Settings Information
When using two control panels in a switcher system,
external devices are controlled by control panel 1.
Consequently, the external device settings information
for control panel 1 must be copied to control panel 2.
Copy the external device setup data using the Home >
File menu, for example.
For details about Home > File menu operations, see
"Chapter 19 File Management" (page 329).
Chapter
Setting Parallel Input
Ports
The use of parallel input ports is assigned in the following
priority sequence.
1. External box settings in the Home > Setup >
Router/Tally > NS-Bus > Matrix menu (19106.11).
Assigned to external boxes according to the parallel
input port priority.
2. Tally settings in the Home > Setup > Router/Tally
> Tally > Tally Enable menu (19106.23).
Tally input is assigned to the selected parallel input
port.
3. GPI input port settings in the Home > Setup >
External Device > Input Config menu (19105.11).
GPI input settings are configured for parallel input ports
not used for external boxes or tally input.
GPI input is also supported via a network. The GPI input
port settings are the same as for parallel input ports.
For details, see "GPI input via a network" (page 425).
