The connectors located in the middle of the rear connector panel (the yellow and orange
color-coded area) are Control connectors.
Linear Time Code (LTC)
The Kaleido-X16 supports two linear time code (LTC) inputs over BNC connectors. The
format is SMPTE ST
12 unbalanced (see Time Code Inputs (LTC), on page 28 for specification
details).
GPI I/O
The Kaleido-X16 supports status monitoring, genlock and GPI interfacing. The rear
connector panel houses all input and output connectors associated with GPI I/O. The
Kaleido-X16 supports 32
GPI inputs and 4 GPI outputs. The GPI connector type is a DB-44
(female on the connector panel; male on the cable):
There are 44 GPI connector pins (40 not including GND) whose functions are as follows:
•4 Ground (GND) pins
•32 GPI Input pins
•4 GPI Output Emitter pins (designated in the table, below, as “N”)
•4 GPI Output Collector pins (designated in the table, below, as “P”)
The exact pinout for the GPI connector is as follows:
