- Description
- The product is a GPI and Tally Interface, essentially a control-signal adaptor for a television studio or live video-production system. It does not process or display video. it connects an ATEM video switcher to cameras, monitors, replay machines and other studio equipment. When the operator selects a camera for the live broadcast, the interface sends an electrical signal that can illuminate that camera’s red “on-air” tally light. This tells the camera operator and presenters which camera is currently being used. It can also receive simple external control signals, such as a button press or switch closure, and pass them into the production system. It provides: • 8 electrical inputs for receiving control signals. • 8 relay outputs for operating tally lights or triggering compatible equipment. • An Ethernet connection to communicate with the ATEM production switcher. • A USB connection used for configuration and firmware updates. • The ability to connect multiple units when more inputs or outputs are required
