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 either Using DHCP or a 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.
You will need to reconfigure your GPI and Tally Interface to work
