4. Some switchers have user settings that determine if input selection on an Auxiliary Bus causes
a high-tally condition. Check and confirm Auxiliary Bus tally settings if Deko channels are to
be selected on Auxiliary Busses.
5. Switchers that have Effects Send capability may require additional switcher configuration to
assure that the necessary high/low tally conditions are met when Deko channels are used in an
Effects Send situation. Check the switcher documentation for specific information.
To confirm operation of the Burst GPI-10 after making all connections and configurations
for tally/GPI control:
1. Select each Deko channel on switcher Program and confirm that the corresponding GPI light
on the Burst GPI-10 illuminates. The lights should remain on until the Deko channel is
removed from Program.
2. Setup and transmit each output GPI from the switcher. The corresponding GPI lights on the
Burst GPI-10 should flash momentarily each time the GPI pulse is received.
