Skaarhoj: ETH-GPI Link

Key Features
Setting up an I/O device have never been this flexible. Connect and control anything from your tally lamps, trigger ATEM switcher routines, control a HyperDeck, change Scopes on a SmartScope Duo and route inputs/outputs on a VideoHub. Defining parameters – single or multiple - for inputs/outputs is extremely fast, thanks to the drop-down menu structure in UniSketch OS. Connect and control up to 8/16 devices at the same time!

Skaarhoj: ETH-GPI Link.
GPIO Control Made Easy
Setting up an I/O device have never been this flexible. Connect and control anything from your tally lamps, trigger ATEM switcher routines, control a HyperDeck, change Scopes on a SmartScope Duo and route inputs/outputs on a VideoHub. Defining parameters – single or multiple - for inputs/outputs is extremely fast, thanks to the drop-down menu structure in UniSketch OS. Connect and control up to 8 devices at the same time!
Broadcast I/O easy control or integration with existing systems
The GPIO controller let you control anything from your tally lamps, a foot switch over ethernet or integration with existing systems such as CCUs, video routing and other video switchers or video infrastructure units. There are almost endless possibilities.
The general-purpose I/O controllers offer 8/16 inputs and 8/16 outputs, all electrically separated with quality relays and optocouplers. GPO is implemented with relays shorting to GND. GPI implemented with optical isolators shorted to GND.
Please notice: SKAARHOJ Controllers with GPI inputs accept open collector and relay outputs (pulled to GND). The default HD15 tally connector on the TriCaster TC1 does not provide a direct working signal to the ETH-GPI Link. Converting the 5V potential to GND is needed.
The DB25 connector configuration is similar to the Blackmagic Design GPI & Tally Interface. If you fancy a breakout board for the DB25 connector with Phoenix connectors then have a look at the Breakout Board.
Device Settings
The ETH-GPI Link runs UniSketch OS which allows you to configure the device for multiple hardware devices such as the ATEM Switcher, HyperDeck, SmartScopes, VideoHubs, AJA KUMO Routers, vMix and more - see the entire list at www.skaarhoj.com/support/device-cores You can even configure the unit to control multiple hardware devices at the same time! The microprocessor (SKAARDUINO Due) inside the ETH-GPI Link allows connections to a maximum number of 8 devices.
