Using General Purpose inputs and outputs (GPIOs)
FSII Base II software version 1.5.1 and above offers six fully configurable GPIOs, increasing the range and possible uses of controls and relays.
Earlier versions have limited GPIO functionality (an output fires on Stage Announce only).
- 2 x GPIs. These can be used, for example, to allow the station operator to open an audio route to a Channel using a foot switch, or to route a program feed to a Channel, Group or beltpack when an on-air light comes on. Each input control can be used to generate up to 10 different audio routes.
- 4 x GPOs. The most common uses for output relays are to turn on an on-air light, connect to a radio and send an input to an external audio console. Each GPO can be triggered by up to 10 different actions.
Relays and GPIOs are configured in the General page of the Core Configuration Manager (CCM).

Test GPIOs
The configuration of the GPIOs can be tested (without connecting an external device) in the Overview page of the CCM.
