Set Alarms for GPIO Pin Changes, as Needed
If you want alarms to be issued in the form of email notifications or SNMP traps when a
GPIO pin signals that an event has occurred on the Digi Connect device, go to the Alarms
page and configure those alarms. See "Configure Alarms" on page 93.
Exercise GPIO Pins
Once the GPIO pins and any alarms associated with them have been configured, you
should exercise the GPIO pins to test their configuration.
Exercise GPIO Input
Typically, you will use input signals on GPIO pins to trigger an email alarm, which tells an
administrator or technician that a significant event has occurred within the device. The
process for testing GPIO input is as follows:

Exercise GPIO Output
The process for testing GPIO output is as follows. In this process, raising a GPIO signal
from the configuration application causes an LED on the development board to turn on.

On the SW2 bank of switches on the development board, ensure that one of the
GPIO pins is set to high.
On the SW1 bank of switches, set the same GPIO pin to IO.
Configure the GPIO pin for input. See "Configure GPIO Pins" on page 103.
Configure an email alarm for the GPIO pin. See "Configure Alarms" on page 103.
Toggle the SW2 switch several times to generate several email alarms.
On the SW2 bank of switches on the development board, ensure that one of the
GPIO pins is set to High.
On the SW1 bank of switches, set the same GPIO pin to IO.
In the default web interface for the Digi Connect device, click the GPIO link. On
the GPIO page, configure one or more GPIO pins for output. See "Configure GPIO
Pins" on page 103 for details.
Under Administration, click the System Information link. On the System
Information page, click the GPIO link.
Choose Asserted to raise the signal, and then click Set Pins.
An LED on the development board is turned on.
