User's Manual

If you do not have access to the unit because it is in another location, you can find it on the
network using the Bonjour browser. This application will show you all the devices on your
network and will give you the IP address of the GPI and Tally Interface you wish to add.
1 Press the + (add device) button at the bottom of the Videohub Control Panels pane.
2 Type in the IP address of the GPI and Tally Interface and press OK.
3 The second GPI and Tally Interface will appear in the list with any other devices that are
connected to the Videohub.
Press the + (add device) button and enter the IP address of a GPI and Tally Device you want
to add. Press the Identify button to activate the LED on a selected GPI and Tally Interface.
Setting up the GPI and Tally Interface
The GPI and Tally Interface is configured using the Videohub Hardware Panel Setup. Before you
can use the GPI and Tally Interface, you may need to install the latest version of the software.
1 Connect the power adapter to the GPI and Tally Interface.
2 Connect the GPI and Tally Interface to your computer with a USB Type A to B cable.
3 Open the software and it will detect whether your GPI and Tally Interface has been
configured for a Videohub before. If it has the software will open without any need
for changes. Otherwise a message will tell you your GPI and Tally Interface has been
configured for use with an ATEM Switcher and will need to be reconfigured for use
with Videohub. Click Yes. After a few moments the GPI and Tally Interface will be
reconfigured as a Videohub client.
Configuring the GPI and Tally Interface
If your Videohub does not have an Ethernet port, or if it is only accessible over a network:
1 Connect a USB type A to B cable from your GPI and Tally Interface to your computer.
2 Connect an Ethernet cable from the Ethernet IN port on your GPI and Tally Interface to
your Ethernet switcher.
3 Open Videohub Hardware Panel Setup.
4 You should see your GPI and Tally Interface with a USB icon next to it in the Videohub
Control Panels pane. Give your GPI and Tally Interface a unique name so it can be
easily recognized. To do so, click inside the GPI and Tally Name field and type a name.
5 Check the option to configure your IP address as ‘using DHCP’ or ‘static IP’. Depending
on your setup, you may choose either so it’s probably a good idea to check with your
network administrator to see which is the better option.
6 In the Remote Videohub IP field, enter the IP address of the Videohub you want to
connect to. A red light next to the field will turn green and the LED on the GPI and Tally
interface will illuminate when a connection has been established.
