Figure 15-17: GPIO/Misc Field Touched.
GPI {ON} key: Enables/disables reception of the dened GPI signal from recalling the current Cue.
VIRTUAL PIN encoder: Allows a Cue List Virtual GPI Pin to be selected as the trigger source. The Virtual Pin
must be assigned to a real (Physical) Pin in the GPIO Page. There are 80 Virtual GPI Pins available. (allows
for 32 local plus up to 48 on 6 stageboxes). The Virtual pin number display is in grey text if that pin is
already used by another Cue.
{STEAL} key: Only displayed if the selected Virtual pin is already assigned to another Cue.
Pressing the STEAL button reassigns the Virtual pin to the current Cue (no warning dialogue given).
PHYSICAL PIN eld: displays the physical Pin number that is currently assigned to the selected Virtual Pin.
(Display only). If a physical pin has not been assigned, this eld will be empty.
GPO {ON} key, as above, but for outgoing GPO events. The Virtual GPO pins must be set up in the GPIO
page.
There is no need for a Steal key on GPOs, several Cues can be assigned to the same v-pin. Note that
although there is only one v-pin per Cue, a v-pin can be assigned to any number of physical pins in the
GPIO setup page.
BLACKOUT {ON} key: Enables/disables the Blackout event on this Cue. This is intended for use in a dark
scene in a theatre production.
The Blackout event switches off all console LEDs, screens and desk illumination, except for the NEXT
and LAST buttons and the [F6] key. Pressing the [F6] key switches all illumination back on, but does not
activate any other function assigned to it. When the illumination is back on, [F6] is returned to its normal
function (if any).
HiQnet {ON} key: enables/disables the transmission of the assigned HiQnet Venue Change message upon
recall of this Cue.
HiQnet encoder: Allows selection of the Venue Change number that will be transmitted from the HiQnet
Ethernet port when this Cue is recalled.
Note that the IP address of the console must be set up in order to use the HiQnet functionality. These
parameters are available in the Menu\system\HiQnet page (see chapter 14).
