OPT-GPI – General Purpose Interface Kit
What is it?
An interface card that replaces the standard RS232 card for the DP224/6/6i to add
closed contact memory recall facilities.

1 x RS232/GPI interface card;
1 x 15 way D-type to 9 way D-type adapter;
1 x 15 way D-type plug & shell;
Manual and fitting instructions.
When should I use this?
If remote change of memories is required, without involving a PC or other electronic device. This interface allows
memories to be recalled (input, crossover or both) via simple switch closure.
What else should I know?
The kit does not contain any external hardware for actually selecting and recalling memories – the switch arrangement has
to be built by the user. Full instructions are supplied giving examples and details of how to connect a suitable device.
An RS232 interface is included on the GPI interface, so remote PC access and software updates are still possible via the
supplied adapter cable.
Any connected slave units (on the RS485 bus) will also recall memories when the master unit is triggered, so only one GPI
kit has to be fitted to the master unit.
This interface is currently unavailable for the DP324 (SiDD).
Where do I get one?
This kit can be purchased from your local XTA supplier or directly from XTA by credit card. See the end of this document
for details.
XTA Part Number: OPT-GPI
