Additional GPI Modules for System Design
Hi everyone. I've been surfing the forum a little today trying to learn my way around an install I'm working on. I was wondering if someone could help me out. I could be a little too OCD on this, but is there any place out there where I can find add-on modules for the architect software that will give me more types of GPI devices? Right now all I have is a button, LED, and an RS-232 adapter. What I'd like to get my hands on is a two way switch so that I can set it up to control what preset is loaded based on its position. Does that even exist?
Thanks,
Danial

You can buy one of these from your BSS distributor, it's a BLU3/9012 or BLU6/9015. The faceplate size is the only difference. These are however, 5 position or 8 position ladder networks, so possibly no use for your application.
However, you could build one yourself.
Open up the help file and search for 'resistor' and you will see a table of resistor values presented that run from 2 positions up to 9.
These connect up to a control port on the rear of a London. Drag your presets on there and you are done.
