SKAARHOJ ETH-GPI Link Dual Option

Description

Setting up an I/O device have never been this flexible. Connect and control anything with the SKAARHOJ ETH-GPI Link Dual Option from your tally lamps, trigger ATEM switcher routines, control a HyperDeck, change Scopes on a SmartScope Duo and route inputs/outputs on a VideoHub. Defining parameters - single or multiple - for inputs/outputs is extremely fast, thanks to the drop-down menu structure in UniSketch OS. Connect and control up to 8 devices at the same time!

UniSketch OS

Think of SKAARHOJ broadcast controllers like modern computers; they come in form factors like desktop, notebook, tablet and yet they run the same operating system enabling individual use through installation of apps from online repositories. Likewise all variants of SKAARHOJ controllers run the UniSketch OS connected to a growing "app store" of broadcast device support.

UniSketch OS is the core system running on all of our UniSketch compatible controllers. In short this means functionality is not limited to a specific controller - they can all do the same with the apparent limitation different hardware interface components provides.

Note: UniSketch V2.x needs the SKAARDUINO Due (our in-house developed microcontroller unit) platform to run.

UniSketch OS based controllers running the SKAARDUINO Due inside our products allows you to connect to a maximum number of 8 devices at the same time.

Broadcast I/O easy control or integration with existing systems

The GPIO controller let you control anything from your tally lamps, a foot switch over ethernet or integration with existing systems such as CCUs, video routing and other video switchers or video infrastructure units. There are almost endless possibilities.

The general-purpose I/O controllers offer 8/16 inputs and 8/16 outputs, all electrically separated with quality relays and optocouplers. GPO is implemented with relays shorting to GND. GPI implemented with optical isolators shorted to GND.

The DB25 connector configuration is similar to the Blackmagic Design GPI & Tally Interface. If you fancy a breakout board for the DB25 connector with Phoenix connectors then have a look at the Breakout Board.

Device Settings

The ETH-GPI Link runs UniSketch OS which allows you to configure the device for multiple hardware devices such as the ATEM Switcher, HyperDeck, SmartScopes, VideoHubs, AJA KUMO Routers, vMix and more. You can even configure the unit to control multiple hardware devices at the same time!
