Chapter 8: Configuring IconMaster
GPI Settings
To use external GPIs, you must first enable them on the ICU Network page (see
page 201), and configure the JLCooper eBOX (see their documentation for
details).
If configuring an IconMaster LITE, fewer GPI and GPO selections
are available. IconMaster LITE has 8 GPI and 6 GPO.
