GPIO-Changer-PS/2 Basic

The GPIO-Changer-PS/2

is a signal converter, which makes it easy to use the GPIO function of compatible matrix switches and their end devices. GPIO stands for „general purpose input/output“ and refers to the transmission of simple switching states (on/off).

Application fields include alarms in control rooms, the automation of critical monitoring states, or the typical "tally light" as on-air signal in broadcasting.

Technical data

Transmission

Switching states that are applied to the respective PS/2 contacts on the computer side are reproduced accordingly by the system on the receiver module on the user side, and vice versa.

Each PS/2-interface is able to depict two GPIO-switsching states

Device

The signal converter can be used, for example, in the following fields of application:
- Transmission of the signal of an emergency button on the operating side
  (alarms in control rooms)
- Transmission of a switching signal on the computer, which controls an acoustic alarm or a visual signal in the form of a warning light (on-air signalling in broadcast)
