GPIO Notes for Rivendell
|
|
|
|
Rivendell supports the following General Purpose Input/Output (GPIO)
|
|
devices:
|
|
|
|
Gameport Joystick Buttons
|
|
USB Joystick Buttons
|
|
Measurement Computing PCI-PDIS08 Board
|
|
Measurement Computing PCI-PDIS16 Board
|
|
Measurement Computing PCI-DIO24 Board
|
|
|
|
Several supported switcher devices feature GPIO capabiities as well,
|
|
see the file 'SWITCHERS.txt' for more info.
|
|
|
|
JOYSTICK DEVICES
|
|
Joystick support utilizes the Linux Input Device subsystem. Inputs
|
|
are active-low, and should be wired as follows:
|
|
|
|
02: Input 1
|
|
04: Ground
|
|
|
|
07: Input 2
|
|
05: Ground
|
|
|
|
10: Input 3
|
|
12: Ground
|
|
|
|
14: Input 4
|
|
12: Ground
|
|
|
|
In addition, you will need to connect 47 kohm resistors between the
|
|
following pins: 1-3, 6-8, 9-11 and 13-15. While not strictly needed
|
|
for the GPI portion of the interface to work, the kernel's analog
|
|
joystick driver will refuse to initialize the port if these resistors
|
|
(or a real joystick) are not present.
|
|
|
|
The device name of the joystick will be one of the /dev/input/event<n>
|
|
devices.
|
|
|
|
NOTE: There have been reports that some port models do not internally
|
|
connect pin 12 to ground. The symptom of this situation will be that
|
|
Inputs 1 and 2 work, but not Inputs 3 and 4. If this is the case,
|
|
connecting the ground for Inputs 3 and 4 to pins 04 or 05 should remedy
|
|
the problem.
|
|
|
|
|
|
MEASUREMENT COMPUTER GPIO BOARDS
|
|
To configure one of the supported MeasurementComputing GPIO boards,
|
|
proceed as follows:
|
|
|
|
1) Install the card(s) in the computer. In the case of the PCI-DIO24,
|
|
two cards may be necessary, as each seperate card is entirely
|
|
utilized as either inputs or outputs.
|
|
|
|
|
|
2) Test it out. Two programs exist for this purpose: 'gpitest' tests
|
|
GPI inputs, and 'gpotest' tests GPO outputs. These programs come
|
|
with the 'libradio' package.
|
|
|
|
3) Define a GPIO device in RDAdmin->Stations->Switcher/GPIO. Use
|
|
a device type of 'Local GPIO'.

GPIO BOARD-SPECIFIC NOTES
|
|
|
|
The Measurement Computing PCI-PDIS08 and PCI-PDIS16 boards feature
|
|
floating, opto-isolated inputs. The inputs are not polarity sensitive
|
|
and may be driven by either AC or DC. The outputs are electro-mechanical
|
|
relays with dry contacts. Connector pinouts are as follows:
|
|
|
|
PCI-PDIS08 -- DB37 Male Connector
|
|
PCI-PDIS16 -- DB37 Male Connector (using C50F-37F Cable)
