Internal Outputs⚓︎

The JNIORs have outputs isolated from one another. You can find out a lot more about the inputs on our website. The main thing to know about the outputs is that they are dry contact and need an external power source to provide power. Each internal output can handle between 5-30volts. The different models have a different number of inputs.

The 410 has 8 outputs, the 412 and 412 DMX have 12 outputs, and the 414 has only 4 outputs.

Get Output States⚓︎

Since: Version 26.0.0 - May 19, 2026

Authentication Level: Any

There are two options when it comes to getting the JNIOR's output states. You can get the state of a specific channel or you can get the states of all the channels at once.

int output_state;
const int error_code = ipg::get_output_state(m_uuid, channel_number, &output_state);
if (ipg::OK == error_code) {
    std::printf("the output state for %d is: %d\n", channel_number, output_state);
} else {
    std::printf("getting the output state threw %s\n", ipg::get_last_error());
}

int output_states;
const int error_code = ipg::get_output_states(m_uuid, &output_states);
if (ipg::OK == error_code) {
    std::printf("the output states are: %d\n", output_states);
} else {
    std::printf("getting the output states threw %s\n", ipg::get_last_error());
}

// Example that returns output 1's state
// Referencing outputs using this call is zero based
// Returns 0 for off, and 1 for on
var outputState = _jmpConnection.GetOutputState(0);

// Example that returns all output states as a state mask
var outputStates = _jmpConnection.GetOutputStates();

// Example that returns output 1's state
// Referencing outputs using this call is zero based
// Returns 0 for off, and 1 for on
int outputOneState = jmpConnection.getOutputState(0);

// Example that returns all output states as a state mask
int outputStates = jmpConnection.getOutputStates();

# Example that returns output 1's state
# Referencing outputs using this call is zero based
# Returns 0 for off, and 1 for on
outputState = jmp_connection.get_output_state(0)

# Example that returns all output states as a state mask
outputStates = jmp_connection.get_output_states()

var outputUsageMeter = _jmpConnection.GetOutputUsageMeter(0);

// Example that returns output 1's usage meter value to zero
_jmpConnection.ResetOutputUsageMeter(0);

// Example that returns output 1's usage meter value
// Referencing outputs using this call is zero based
int outputUsageMeter = jmpConnection.getOutputUsageMeter(0);

// Example that returns output 1's usage meter value to zero
jmpConnection.resetOutputUsageMeter(0);

# Example that returns output 1's usage meter value
# Referencing outputs using this call is zero based
outputUsageMeter = jmp_connection.get_output_usage_meter(0)

# Example that resets ouput 1's usage mteter value to zero
jmp_connection.reset_output_usage_meter(0)

General Output Control⚓︎

Since: Version 26.0.0 - May 19, 2026

Authentication Level: Administrator

This is a generalized way to control outputs. It allows you to choose the command you wish to perform on the output in the function call.

You must be logged in as a USER or ADMINISTRATOR to control the outputs.

    coming soon...

// Example that sets output 1's state on
// Referencing outputs using this call is zero based
// First parameter is the command to perform, Second is the 
// output you are controlling
// 
// Commands are (Close, Open, Close Pulse, Close Open, Toggle)
_jmpConnection.ControlOutput("Close", 0);

// Example that sets all outputs on
//
// First parameter is the state mask, and defines which 
// outputs to activate, Second parameter is the channel mask
// that defines the range of outputs to evaluate. Outputs 
// not specified in the state mask, but are within the range
// of the channel mask are turned off
_jmpConnection.SetOutputs(15, 15);

// hex can be used to represent mask values as well
_jmpConnection.SetOutputs(0xf, 0xf);

// Example that sets output 1's state on
// Referencing outputs using this call is zero based
// First parameter is the command to perform, Second is the 
// output you are controlling

jmpConnection.controlOutput("close", 0);

// Example that sets outputs 1 - 4 on
//
