parameters, program camera sequences, install lockouts,
and access the advanced alarm handling screens with
speed and efficiency. The programmed information may
then be transferred into the Allegiant system, stored on
disk, or printed out directly from a printer connected to
the PC.
The LTC 8850/00 Bosch GUI software is designed around
an intuitive graphic-based interface. The GUI provides high
performance programming, control and monitoring of all
system functions by using on-screen icons to reflect real
time status of the devices controlled by the system. The
LTC 8850/00 GUI software also provides the ability to
monitor system status events. System alarms, switching
functions, sequence events, keyboard actions, and video
loss information can be viewed in real time on the PC
screen and, if desired, logged to the PC hard drive.
The software also provides the ability to enable an on-
screen indicator for easy identification of controllable
cameras.
The LTC 8300 Series contain a logging printer output port
which accepts a standard RS 232 serial printer. This
provides a permanent record of system status showing
time and date for changes such as: incoming alarms,
acknowledgment of alarms, sequence loading, user log-on
to keyboard, transfer of system tables and sequences,
video loss messages, and a power up reset message. In
addition, the printer can be used to obtain a hard copy of
the system's configuration tables and sequences.
These systems provide powerful macro capabilities. The
macros can be activated using Allegiant Series keyboards,
system time event functions, alarm activations, and via
special function icons in the LTC 8850/00 GUI software.
These systems can serve as the master switcher in a
SatelliteSwitch
®
configuration. This innovative
SatelliteSwitch feature enables a single system to
communicate with remotely located "Satellite" systems.
Any Allegiant model can serve as a master or remote
Satellite switcher. This powerful feature permits the
design of a distributed matrix video switching system with
control at one central location and individual control at
the local sites. The main control site can view/control
local cameras plus cameras located at any of the remotely
distributed Satellite sites. The Satellite sites can view/
control only cameras associated with their own site. When
used in this type of configuration, the main system can
access up to 256 cameras located anywhere in the
system.
