INSTALLATION

The Allegiant Bilinx Data Interface Unit should be
installed in a suitable indoor environment free from
excessive dust, moisture and temperature extremes.
Setup of the Allegiant Bilinx Data Interface Unit is
quick and easy. Follow the steps listed below. If a
particular step does not apply to your configuration,
proceed to the next step.
4.1 Enclosure Mounting and Location
Selection
The Allegiant Bilinx Data Interface Unit is supplied in
a desktop enclosure. If the unit is to be installed into a
standard EIA 19in. rack, remove the four (4) rubber
footpads on the bottom, and attach the rack-mounting
brackets provided in the supplied rack-mount kit. The
unit can then be installed into a standard EIA 19in.
rack with user-supplied fastening hardware.
Since video signal connections need to be made
between the Interface Unit and the main system
control unit, the physical distance between them
should be taken into consideration. Connection
between the LTC 8016 and the control device is via a
34-pin video ribbon cable. A 2m (6ft) video ribbon
cable is supplied, but if the controller does not
support this type of video connection, optional
accessory products are required. If unsure of the
available connection methods, review VIDEO

4.2 Connections to AC Power

Connect the appropriate power cord to the AC
mains source. Two (2) IEC-compatible AC power
cords are supplied (one (1) for 120VAC; one (1) for
220-240VAC). If the cord termination is not suitable
for connection to the main AC supply, modification
to the cord, or a locally sourced cord with the correct
end style is required.

4.3 Camera Video Connections

The BNC inputs on the rear panel of the Interface
Unit are designed to accept standard composite video
signals. The inputs are fixed at 75Ω. It is irrelevant
whether video signal is NTSC or PAL format, or if
non-Bilinx-enabled cameras are connected to the
Interface Unit along with Bilinx-enabled cameras.
Since Bilinx technology provides adjustment and
configuration capabilities for compatible cameras from
the controller location, there's no need to pre-program
camera options or configure camera addresses, as with
AutoDome Series Cameras.
IMPORTANT: Coax communication must not
exceed 300m (1000ft) when using RG-59U grade
CCTV coax, or 600m (2000ft) when using RG-6 or
RG-11 grade coax.
There are other types of video transmission devices
that are compatible with Bilinx technology. The
LTC 4630 & LTC 4631 Series can transmit Bilinx
video signals via fiber optics, up to a maximum of
600m (2000ft). It is also possible to use CAT-5 grade
cable connected to Balun devices, to achieve distances
of up to 225m (750ft).
