Mapping GPO to Playlist Events

The MAXX-2400HD has twelve General Purpose Outputs, referred to as GPO 1 through 12. Any of these can be programmed to go active at a pre-determined time, or offset, after the beginning of a Playlist clip. An active duration can also be set, after which the output again goes inactive. In all cases, every output will go inactive when a clip ends. By default, a new clip contains no programmed GPO output commands. Refer to APPENDIX A – CONNECTOR SPECIFICATIONS for details on electrically interfacing to the GPO lines.
