Using GPI (General Purpose Interface)

7. As necessary, use the PARAMETER ﬁeld located at

the right to specify the parameters, and click the

OK button.

The popup window will close.

8. In the same way, make other GPI IN settings as

desired.

Hint

By displaying GPI IN CONSOLE / GPI IN ENGINE

in the lower part of the screen, you can check the

function that is assigned to each port (→p.10).

9. Operate the external device / external switch to

send a control signal to the PM1D system.

The function that is assigned to that GPI IN port will

be executed on the PM1D system.

Hint

Of the functions that can be assigned to GPI IN, Tap

Te mpo is explained in detail on page 51, so you may

refer to that section as well.

Using GPI OUT

Here’s how you can remotely control an external device by sending control signals from GPI OUT when a speciﬁc opera-

tion is performed on the PM1D system.

1. Connect your GPI compatible external device to

the GPI connector of the engine or console.

• If you are using the PM1D system in Mirror

mode, GPI OUT output always operates in tan-

dem for engines A and B.

• If you are using the PM1D system in Dual Con-

sole mode (→p.11), only the GPI connector of

the currently-operated console can be used. It is

not possible to modify the settings for the GPI

connector of the other unit, or to receive control

signals from the GPI connector of the other unit.

Furthermore, settings for the GPI connector of

the engine can be made only from console 1.

2. Access the MIDI/GPI/TC function GPI screen.

3. Scroll the GPI OUT list to display the OUTPUT

port that you want to set.

4. According to the character of the signal that your

external device is able to receive, set the POLARITY

ﬁeld to either Low (grounded when active) or High

(open when active).

5. At the left of the ASSIGNED TRIGGER ﬁeld, click

the DIRECT ASSIGN button to open the GPI

OUT SETUP popup window.

6. Scroll the list shown at the left side, click the trigger

that you want to assign, and click the OK button.

The popup window will close.

7. In the same way, make other GPI OUT settings as

desired.

Hint

You can use the TEST button in the GPI screen to

test-transmit control signals from each GPI OUT

according to the POLARITY and TRIGGER/TOG-

GLE/TALLY settings. This is a convenient way to ver-

ify that the external device will operate as you expect.

8. Execute the operation that is assigned to GPI OUT.

A control signal will be transmitted from the corre-

sponding GPI OUT port.

Hint

If you want to use GPI OUT as a USER DEFINE des-

tination, make settings in the USER DEFINE screen

(→p.52). If you want to use GPI OUT as a destina-

tion from GPI IN, make settings in GPI IN (→p.36).

Details on using this as a destination of Fader Start

are given on page 42.
