GENERAL PURPOSE INPUTS
“Misc Functions”, “Channel Cut” or
“Auto Fade”
Each opto-isolated general purpose input
can be assigned to up to 10 console
functions (with “Misc Functions” selected),
or cut up to 10 channels (with ‘Channel
Cut’ selected).
With Auto Fade selected, this screen
allows general purpose inputs to be
assigned to one of the console’s 32 Auto-
Faders, to allow automatic cross-fading.
To make an assignment, select an input
(left side of screen), and a function or
channel (right side of screen), and select
Patch. Assignment can also be moved
and removed, in a similar way to port
connections.
If optos are patched to input ports, when
fired externally, they will cut any channel to
which that input port is connected. Once
set up, opto assignments can be locked
using the Opto Lock button, to prevent
accidental removal.
After configuring a GP input, the correct
functioning can be verified without the
input hardware being activated. This is
done by clicking on the Test button.
