• Any controller device generating Allegiant
biphase P/T/Z control code protocol.

4.0 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 19-inch rack, remove the four (4) rubber
footpads on the bottom. Use the supplied offset
screwdriver to remove two (2) star head screws
located on each side near the front of the unit. Then
attach the supplied rack mounting brackets to the unit.
The unit can then be installed into the 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 2 m (6 ft) 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, refer to the Section
VIDEO CONNECTIONS TO CONTROLLER UNIT
found later in the manual.

4.2 Connections to AC Power

Connect the appropriate power cord to the AC
main source. 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

There are two banks of BNC inputs on the rear panel
of the Interface Unit: 1-8 and 9-16. The inputs are
designed to accept standard composite video signals,
and are fixed at 75Ω termnation. The unit accepts
NTSC or PAL video signals. Both Bilinx and non-
Blinx cameras can be connected to a bank of inputs,
but at least one Bilinx camera must be connected to
the bank in use, or it will enter a search mode and
cause a periodic video disturbance. If more than 8
cameras are connected to the unit, both banks must
have at least one Bilinx camera connected to it.
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.
Coax communication must not exceed 300 m
(1000 ft) when using RG-59U grade CCTV
coax, or 600 m (2000 ft) 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
600 m (2000 ft). It is also possible to use CAT-5 grade
cable connected to Balun devices, to achieve distances
of up to 225 m (750 ft).
