NOTE: Before attaching the AC line cord to the LTC 8943/95 System Controller PC, verify that
the line voltage selector switch next to the AC plug is set correctly.
The order that power is supplied to the system is not critical, but the following order is
recommended if unfamiliar with the equipment:
Apply power to the LTC 894x/93 LAN switches. The LAN switches do not have a main AC
power switch, and should power up as soon as the main AC power cord is connected. Initially,
the switch models should indicate the following conditions:
1. Power light is illuminated.
2. The Link port indicator LEDs corresponding to the 2 m (6 ft) crossover LAN cable should
be illuminated.
3. Mode LEDs below the Link LEDs should blink.
Switch on the main AC power to the video bays (LTC 8902 and LTC 8903). Verify that the
LEDs associated with the fuses are lit on all of the power supplies in the LTC 8902 Series and
LTC 8903 Series matrix bays. Initially, the modules within the matrix bays should indicate the
following conditions:
1. The CPU ACT. LEDs on all Data Receiver modules (module next to power supply) installed
in the matrix bays should be blinking randomly green. The LAN LINK/ACT LED will blink
green to indicate communication with the Allegiant CPU. The LAN DUP/COL LED
illuminates yellow to indicate a full duplex network link exists with the Allegiant CPU. All
other LEDs can be ignored.
2. Activity LEDs should be blinking on the video input and output modules installed in the
matrix bays.
Turn on the main power switches to the LTC 8943 System Controller PC and its associated PC
monitor. Continue to follow the power up procedure while the PC boots up.
Apply power to the LTC 8901 CPU bay. The LTC 8901 CPU does not have a main AC power
switch, and should power up as soon as the main AC power cord is connected. Verify that the
CPU Selector switch on the front panel is set to Auto Select mode. Initially, the front panel
LEDs of the CPU bay should indicate the following conditions:
1. The power LEDs should be lit for both CPUs.
2. Activity LEDs should be blinking for both CPUs.
3. The In Use LED should be lit for the Primary CPU.
4. Both Fault LEDs should be off.
5. The Controller Activity LED should be off.
6. The Auto LED should be lit.
NOTE: Based on activity and general system, the system may require several seconds to fully
initialize after a power up reset.
At this point, the system should be operational but not in its full redundant mode.
If cameras and monitors are connected to the system, video from camera number 1 should be
visible on all system monitors. The on-screen text overlay should be visible and the clock
should be running (even if no video signal is present). If not, double-check the video and data
cable connections. If necessary, refer to the Troubleshooting section of this manual.
The following steps detail the initial operation of the PC-based System Supervisor software.
Complete programming and operation of the supplied software can be found in the supplied
LTC 8059 Master Control Software for Windows manual and the System Supervisor manual. If
any difficulty is experienced, please refer to the appropriate manual.
1. If the PC was powered up in the previous section, the Windows operating system should
already have begun running. Once the Begin login box appears, press Ctrl + Alt + Del as
indicated.
2. When the login Information box appears, login as Administrator using the Password
