CCU Tally Integration

CCU Tally Integration Guide

The IPIO connects to the BitFire cloud via the Ethernet on the front of the unit. Plug a single Ethernet cable into the port, and the other end should go into the BitFire server via the NET2 (aux on the older units) port.

CCU Wiring at IPIO 

Each port on the IPIO must be wired correctly at the Phoenix connector to work correctly. At each contact closure, there are three screw-down terminals: C, NC & NO.

For BitFire integration, only two should be wired: C (common) and NO (normally open). 

This means that when tally is activated:

  • The connection between C and NO will be closed/shorted.
  • The green light (above the Phoenix connector) on the IPIO will illuminate for the corresponding port when triggered.
  • The tally will turn on.
