APPENDIX A - SATELLITE SYSTEMS
A satellite system configuration is usually used for a
large distributed system, or to obtain extremely large
matrix sizes configured more conventionally. Typically,
a single Main control site can be used to view/control
cameras located both locally and at various remote
satellite sites. Since many satellite sites can be linked to
a single Main control site, very large, distributed
systems can be achieved. If the satellite systems are
located at the same site as the Main system, the result
is a large conventional-type system. In a satellite
configuration, the Main control site can view/control
any camera in the entire system, but the remote
satellite sites can only view/control cameras associated
with their own site. Satellites may be configured to
operate either independently or, with no local
viewing/control capability.
The Main site must consist of any Allegiant Series
switcher (LTC 8100, LTC 8200, LTC 8300, LTC 8500,
LTC 8600, or LTC 8800). Satellite site switchers can be
any Allegiant model switcher. A LTC 8780 Series Data
Converter is required at each satellite site, to perform
address decoding and data conversion for the
switching system. If the satellite site contains
pan/tilt/zoom cameras, a LTC 8569 Code Merger is
also required at the satellite site. All products are
standard models, and the only required option is to
use either the Master Control Software for Windows
LTC 8059/00 or the LTC 8850/00 GUI software
package for initial programming of each Allegiant
system.
Each satellite site must have an Allegiant control data
line from the code distribution unit at the Main site.
This data line carries all pan/tilt/zoom control
commands, in addition to the switching commands
generated by the Main site switcher. The control data
line should be connected to a LTC 8780 Series Data
Converter to provide address decoding functions for
the satellite site. If operators at the satellite site are
permitted to control pan/tilt/zoom-equipped cameras,
a LTC 8569 Series Code Merger must be installed at
the satellite site. The Code Merger combines code
generated by the main site and the satellite site, so
both sites have control over pan/tilt/zoom-equipped
cameras located at the satellite site. The LTC 8780
Series unit can then be connected to one of the data
outputs of the LTC 8569 Series unit.
One or more monitor outputs from each satellite
system are used as trunk lines to link the remote sites
to the Main site. The number of trunk lines from a
satellite site determines the maximum number of
cameras from that site that may be viewed
simultaneously at the Main site. A satellite switcher
can provide only as many trunk lines as it has
monitor outputs.
Sufficient monitor outputs used as trunk lines must be
included in remote satellite switcher sites. The Main
site switcher must include sufficient camera inputs for
local cameras plus trunk lines. The maximum physical
number of camera inputs or monitor outputs used as
trunk lines cannot exceed the capacity of the system.
A single Main site switcher can control multiple
satellite sites up to its video input limit. If full matrix
switching is required at the Main site, the number of
trunk lines from each satellite site must equal the
number of monitors connected to the Main site
switcher. Multiple independently controlled Main site
systems can be combined to provide large numbers of
monitor outputs at the Main site. System capacities are
