SELECTING THE GPI PULLUP VOLTAGE
The GPI jumper J19, located near the rear of the module, selects whether the general purpose inputs will
be pulled up to +5 volts or +12 Volts. Figure 6 shows the jumper configuration and the GPI input
schematic.
GPI LEVEL
To set the pull-up voltage to +5 volts set the jumper to the +5V position,
To set the pull-up voltage to +12 volts set the jumper to the +12V position,

WHAT IS VISTALINK™?
VistaLINK™ is Evertz's remote monitoring and control capability over an Ethernet network using Simple
Network Management Protocol (SNMP). SNMP is a standard computer network protocol that enables
different devices sharing the same network to communicate with each other. For monitoring there needs
to be a detecting device that automatically reports all errors to a central alarm and error logging station.
We also need to be able to interrogate individual detector devices from the central station to determine the
status of individual channels. Finally, we need to be able to configure devices in the network from the
central station and receive feedback that the configuration has been carried out.
There are 3 components of SNMP:
1. An SNMP manager also known as a Network Management System (NMS) is a computer running
special software that communicates with the devices in the network. Evertz VistaLINK™ Pro Manager
graphical user interface (GUI), third party or custom manager software may be used to monitor and
control Evertz VistaLINK™ enabled fiber optic products.
2. Managed devices (such as 7710UC-KF), each with a unique address (OID), communicate with the
NMS through an SNMP Agent. Evertz VistaLINK™ enabled 7700 series modules reside in the 3RU
