DESCRIPTION

The LTC 5136 Series are controllers designed for use with the
TC700 and LTC 0800 Series AutoDome
also be used to operate any of the conventional Allegiant® series
of receiver/drivers.
The LTC 5136 Series support control of all AutoDome and
Allegiant receiver/driver functions including variable speed
pan/tilt/zoom, 99 pre-positions, AutoDome Playback, etc.
Typically, the biphase control code output from the LTC 5136
junction box is connected to a single AutoDome camera or
receiver/driver. If the application will utilize a "daisy chain"
wiring configuration, up to 8 camera sites can be controlled.
The biphase control code cable can extend a maximum distance
of 1.5 km (5000 feet) using 1.0 mm
twisted pair cable (Belden 8760 or equivalent).

INSTALLATION

4.1

General

The desktop Controller unit should be installed in a location
convenient to the operator. The Controller contains a single
RJ-11 connector which is used for both power and data
connections. In most applications, the supplied 3.6 m (12 ft)
power/data cable is connected directly to the supplied interface
unit. The interface unit converts the RS-232 data generated by
the Controller unit into Allegiant biphase control code. The
interface unit also provides a path to connect power to the
Controller unit.
A LED in the interface unit will flash to indicate that the RS-
232 data coming from the Controller has successfully been
converted into biphase control code.
There are no video connections to the Controller. The video
signal(s) from the camera site(s) should be connected to an
appropriate viewing monitor or other video processing
equipment (switcher, multiplexer, etc.).

If the application will utilize an RS-232 data communication
link or will be connected directly to RS-232 series AutoDome
cameras or RS-232 Allegiant receiver/driver units, the
installation is done without using the supplied interface unit.
For RS-232 applications, a LTC 8557 Series Remote Keyboard
Hookup kit should be purchased to simplify the installation
process. One of the junction boxes supplied with LTC 8557
Series kit can then be used to connect the RS-232 wires "Tx",
and "Gnd" from the Controller's output to the user supplied
RS-232 communication link. The RS-232 protocol requires a
simplex link operating at 9600 baud.
Follow one of the following three installation sections below
depending on which type of application you will be using.
This document also includes various diagrams of typical
applications that will be helpful to reference during installation.

Installation using Biphase Code

Install the supplied interface unit in a location close enough to
the Controller unit so the supplied 360 cm (12 ft) data cable
can be used. Note that the interface unit is rated for indoor use
only. If desired, four holes are provided for mounting the
interface unit to a flat surface. The power supply (to power the
Controller and interface unit) should also be located in a
convenient location near the interface unit. Connect the
'bayonet' style connector of the power supply cable into the jack
located on the side of the interface unit. If the power supply
cable must be attached to the power supply, the polarity is not
important; the Interface Unit is not polarity sensitive. Plug the
power supply into a suitable AC power source.
Connect the supplied 360 cm (12 ft) data cable with two RJ-11
connectors between the Controller unit and the interface unit.
The orientation is not important -- either end may be
connected to either device.
The next step is to connect the biphase control code output of
the interface unit to the data cable. Typically, a single camera
site receiver/driver is connected, but the biphase output of the
interface unit is rated to handle up to 8 receiver/drivers when
connected in a "daisy chain" configuration to a maximum of
1.5 km (5000 ft). For a "daisy chain" connection, the cable is
"looped" through each AutoDome camera or receiver/driver
along the way. The last (and only the last) unit in the "daisy
chain" connection should be terminated. All other
receiver/drivers should have their terminating resistor removed
when the 'looping' cable is connected.
