Configuring the GPI Card
225
n
For redundant systems, the name of the device must match on all computers running the GPI
device service. For instance, if you have two servers with the GPI device service installed,
with one named NRCS1 and the second named NRCS2, by default, the device names would
be NRCS1.0 and NRCS2.0. You would have to alter the device names to match to ensure
redundancy.
4. Select the Board Type—the GPI card installed on the PC running the Avid GPI Device
Service.
5. Set the Board Number to the number of GPI cards installed. Options include 0-4, with
the zero (0) representing the first card and four (4) representing the fifth card, which is
the maximum. Command supports only one board per server.
6. Click Apply.
7. Click Add Panel.
The Add Panel dialog box appears.
8. Click OK. The new panel will appear as a tab.
9. (Optional) Rename the panel in the Panel Name textbox.
10. Accept the default Debounce Time. This input threshold setting in milliseconds is 200
by default, which means the system will ignore any signal shorter than 200
milliseconds.
11. Click Apply.
12. Set First Input Pin. Options include 0-15, with the zero (0) representing the first pin and
fifteen (15) representing the sixteenth pin, which is the maximum. This numerical value
is card dependent.
13. Click Add Event. The Add New Event dialog box appears.
