This menu allows you to set 7 assignable functions for remote control via the GPI interface on the back of the monitor (RJ-

45 connector labeled GPI). Simply select one of the GPI slots, 1 through 7, and press ENTER to generate a list of available

functions that can be toggled using the GPI interface.

When looking at the GPI RJ-45 Connector located on the back of the monitor the pins are arranged 1 through 8 from right to

left. This GPI interface is a contact closure based system and PIN 5 is always the ground. The GPI numbering on the GPI

menu corresponds to the physical Pin assignments as follows:

Menu RJ-45 Pin

GPI 1 Pin 1

GPI 2 Pin 2

GPI 3 Pin 3

GPI 4 Pin 4

GPI 5 Pin 6

GPI 6 Pin 7

GPI 7 Pin 8

To prevent conicts between menu toggles and GPI commands some features such as the marker selection toggle must be

set to GPI in their respective menus (i.e. Marker Menu) in order to function properly.

If using FSI’s GPI Keypad Lock to lockout the monitor’s keypad or menu the corresponding Keyboard Locking or Menu

Locking function must be set to GPI 1.

NOTE: As of rmware version

9.53-1907 or later you must set

the UDisk Mode (System Menu)

to OFF in order to use the GPI

Contact Closure port for remote

control.
