Input/Outputs

clip0006

 

There two type of configurable inputs/Outputs on the Controller, internal ones and from the plug-gable satellite modules.

 

1. Internal GPIO from the pins directly from the Controller. These are used in mini version, when no modules attached to the master board.

Or can be used together with the additional modules if require to expand standard amount of inputs/outputs.

 

2. MCP I/O modules, in total can be up to 8 per one board. Each module coming with the 32 I/O. Total 2 layers allow 248 GPIO per case.

3. Input Name, It is also used as a parameter of the signaling URL. Can be alpha-numeric with the maximum of 128 characters

4. Input description, it is used for the friendly identification when triggers are created.

5. GPIO configuration, can be set as:

 a) Digital Output  (High Level)

 b) Digital Output  (Low Level)

 c) Digital Input     (Logical Low)

 d) Digital Input    (Logical High)

 

 

 

GPIO general settings:

In order to avoid false detection, electrical noise and interference, please adjust some settings from the top of the page

1. Bouncing compensation in milliseconds. Typical is from 50 to 100ms.

 

2. In some cases is required to enable internal pull-up or pull-down resistors on the main MCU board controller inputs.

This is dependable on the source type of signaling. Value is 10K per input

 

3. MCP expansion can use only pull-up resistors per each input.

 

RFC location and Positioning Inputs:

For the location and positioning feature, we can use up to 15 internal GPIO configured for the RF end-points.

Each input will determine a location zone. All pendants activated in this zone will be identified to the allocated zone
