Frequently Asked Questions - dLive GPIO ALLEN & HEATH
What is the Allen & Heath dLive GPIO used for?
The dLive GPIO is an expansion unit that adds 16 configurable general-purpose input/output ports to the dLive mixing system. It allows connection of external switches, foot pedals, indicators, or control systems for automation.
How do I connect the GPIO unit to my dLive system?
Connect the GPIO unit to the same network switch as your dLive MixRack and Surface using a standard Ethernet cable. The unit powers up via PoE or an external 12V adapter.
Can I use the GPIO ports as inputs or outputs?
Yes, each port can be individually configured as an input or output in the dLive setup software. Inputs accept 5V TTL or up to 24V, while outputs are open-collector with 100 mA sink capacity.
What type of connectors does the GPIO unit use?
It uses Euroblock (pluggable screw terminal) connectors. Each port has a 3-pin connection: Signal, GND, and Vcc (for external pull-up if needed).
Do I need a separate power supply for the GPIO unit?
Not necessarily. The unit supports Power over Ethernet (PoE) via the network connection. If your switch does not provide PoE, you can use the optional 12V DC adapter.
Can the GPIO unit be rack-mounted?
Yes, it is half-rack width (19 cm). A rack-mount kit (optional) allows you to install one or two units side by side in a standard 19-inch rack.
How do I configure the GPIO ports?
Configuration is done via the dLive Director software or the surface touchscreen. You can assign actions (e.g., mute groups, scene recall, tally lights) to each port.
What is the maximum cable length for connected devices?
For reliable operation, keep cable length to connected devices under 30 meters. Long runs may require shielded cables and proper termination.
Is the GPIO unit compatible with older iLive systems?
No, the GPIO unit is designed specifically for the dLive ecosystem and will not work with iLive or other legacy consoles.
What should I do if a GPIO port stops working?
Check the network connection and power status. Verify port configuration in the software. If the issue persists, try a factory reset. If still faulty, contact Allen & Heath authorized service as there are no user-serviceable parts.
