GPIO Mode

The GPIO of SHIFT have two modes: PULSE mode(default) and LEVEL mode.

  • The GPIN pulse mode is the factory default. Each transition from HIGH to LOW on GPIN pin will force a PC change. See the following picture for the explanation of the mode.
    STOLTZEN-SHIFT-USB-10G-Switcher-2x1-with-Auto-
Switching-05

  • The GPIN level mode uses a level “0” (short to ground) and “1” (open or voltage higher than threshold) to select a specific HOST.

A level “0” or short to ground: HOST2 is selected.
A level “1” or open: HOST1 is selected.

NOTE: In Level mode, can’t switch hosts by pressing button
