3DESCRIPTION
The LTC 5136 Series Controllers are designed for use
with the Bosch AutoDome Series cameras. They can
also be used to operate any of the conventional
Allegiant® Series of Receiver/Drivers.
The LTC 5136 Series controllers support control of all
AutoDome and Allegiant receiver/driver functions
including variable speed pan/tilt/zoom, pre-positions,
auxiliaries, etc. Typically, one of the 16 outputs of the
LTC 5136 junction box is connected to a single
AutoDome camera or receiver/driver. If the application
will use a daisy chain wiring configuration, up to eight
(8) camera sites can be controlled from each of the 16
biphase outputs.
The biphase control code cable can extend a
maximum distance of 1.5 km (5000 ft), using
1.0 mm2(18 AWG) shielded twisted pair cable
(Belden 8760 or equivalent).

4INSTALLATION
4.1 General
The desktop Controller unit should be installed in a
location convenient to the operator. The Controller
contains a single RJ-11 connector, which is used for
both power and data connections. In most applications,
the supplied 3 m (10 ft) power/data cable is connected
directly to the supplied interface unit. The interface
unit converts the RS-232 data generated by the
Controller unit into Allegiant biphase control code.
The interface unit also provides a path to connect
power to the Controller unit.
An LED visible on the top cover of the interface unit
will flash to indicate that the RS-232 data coming from
the Controller has successfully been converted into
biphase control code.
There are no video connections to the Controller. The
video signal(s) from the camera site(s) should be
connected to an appropriate viewing monitor, or other
video processing equipment (switcher, multiplexer,
etc.).
If the application will utilize an RS-232 data
communication link, or will be connected directly to
RS-232 Series AutoDome cameras or RS-232 Allegiant
Receiver/Driver units, the installation is done without
using the supplied interface unit. For RS-232
applications, an LTC 8557 Series Remote Keyboard
Hookup Kit should be purchased to simplify the
installation process. One of the junction boxes supplied
with the LTC 8557 Series Kit can then be used to
connect the RS-232 wires TX and GND from the
Controller’s output to the user-supplied RS-232
communication link. The RS-232 protocol requires a
simplex link operating at 9600 baud.
Three installation sections are detailed below; select
the type of application you will be using.
This document also includes various diagrams of
typical applications, that will be helpful to refer to
during installation.
4.2 Installation Using Biphase Code
(See Figures 3 and 4)
Install the supplied interface unit in a location close
enough to the Controller unit so the that supplied
3 m (10 ft) data cable can be used. Note that the
interface unit is rated for indoor use only. If desired,
four holes are provided for mounting the interface unit
to a flat surface. The power supply (to power the
Controller and interface unit) should also be located in
a convenient location near the interface unit. Connect
the bayonet style connector of the power supply cable
into the jack located on the side of the interface unit. If
the power supply cable must be attached to the power
supply, the polarity is not important; the Interface Unit
is not polarity sensitive. Plug the power supply into a
suitable AC power source.
Connect the supplied 3 m (10 ft) data cable with two
RJ-11 connectors, between the Controller unit and the
interface unit. The orientation is not important -- either
end may be connected to either device.
The next step is to connect the biphase control code
outputs of the interface unit to the data cables.
Typically, a single camera site receiver/driver can be
connected to each output, but the outputs of the
interface unit are rated to handle up to eight (8)
receiver/drivers when connected in a daisy chain
configuration, to a maximum of 1.5 km (5000 ft). In a
daisy chain connection, the cable is looped through each
AutoDome camera or receiver/driver along the way.
The last (and only the last) unit in the daisy chain
connection should be terminated. All other receiver/
drivers should have the terminating resistor removed
when the looping cable is connected.
Connect shielded twisted pair cable (Belden 8760 or
equivalent) between the camera site receiver/driver
location and the biphase output connections located on
the interface unit.

The removable terminal blocks have three
connections: (+), (–), and (S [Shield]), as shown in the
diagram above.
Select and maintain a wire color convention to avoid
confusion at the camera site(s).
EXAMPLE: White to (+), Black to (–), and Shield to (S).
NOTE: The shield terminals (S) of the interface unit
are connected to the shield wire of the cable. Skip to
AutoDome Camera or Receiver/Driver Site Configuration to
complete the installation.
4.3 Installation Using RS-232 Data
Direct to Camera Site (See Figure 5)
In this application, the RS-232 data that is generated
by the Controller is connected directly to RS-232
Series AutoDome cameras or RS-232 Allegiant
Receiver/Driver units. The supplied interface unit is
not used in this application. The AutoDome camera or
receiver/driver must be set (via internal DIP switch or
on-screen menu) for 9600 baud operation.
Install one of the junction boxes supplied in the
LTC 8557 Series Kit (ordered separately) in a location
close enough to the Controller unit so that the supplied
3 m (10 ft) data cable can be used. If desired, four
holes are provided for mounting the LTC 8557 Series
junction box to a flat surface. The power supply (to
power the Controller) should also be located near the
LTC 8557 Series junction box. Connect the bayonet
style connector of the power supply cable into the jack
located on the side of the junction box. If the power
supply cable must be attached to the power supply, the
polarity is not important; the Interface Unit is not
polarity sensitive. Plug the power supply into a suitable
AC power source.
Connect the supplied 3 m (10 ft) data cable with two
RJ-11 connectors, between the Controller unit and the
junction box. The orientation is not important -- either
end may be connected to either device.
Connect an appropriate length of cable (not supplied),
suitable for use with RS-232 signals, between the
LTC 8557 Series junction box, and the camera site
receiver/driver location. If the distance between the
box and camera site is much over 20-30 m (60-90 ft),
the use of user-supplied short haul modems or other
RS-232 line extender devices may be required. These
devices must be able to support an RS-232 simplex
transmission rate of 9600 baud.
The LTC 8557 Series junction box provides a
removable screw terminal block for the data
connections. The terminal block has four connections,
marked 1, 2, 3, & 4, as shown in the junction box
diagram.
Figure 2 Junction Box Supplied with
LTC 8557 Series Kit
Pins 1 and 2 are not used. Pin 3 is the Controller’s
RS-232 TX output, and Pin 4 is the Signal Ground
connection. Connect the wire from terminal 3 to the
RX connection of the AutoDome camera or receiver/
driver. Respectively, connect the wire from terminal 4
to the data ground connection.
Only a single camera site can be connected in this
manner – RS-232 signals cannot be wired using a daisy
chain connection. Be sure to use cable suitable for
RS-232 signals.

4.4 Installation Using an RS-232 Data
Transmission Link to a Biphase
Camera Site (See Figure 6)
In this application, the RS-232 data that is generated
by the Controller is connected directly to an RS-232
transmission link (fiber optics, microwave, dial-up
phone modems, etc.). The RS-232 transmission link
must be able to support an RS-232 simplex
transmission rate of 9600 baud. At the other end of the
RS-232 transmission link, the RS-232 signal is
converted into Allegiant biphase protocol, using the
supplied interface unit. The biphase data is then
connected to the AutoDome cameras or Allegiant
receiver/driver units.
Install one of the junction boxes supplied in the
LTC 8557 Series Kit (ordered separately) in a location
close enough to the Controller unit so that the supplied
3 m (10 ft) data cable can be used. If desired, four
holes are provided for mounting the LTC 8557 Series
junction box to a flat surface. The power supply (to
power the Controller) should also be located near the
LTC 8557 Series junction box. Connect the bayonet
style connector of the power supply cable into the jack
located on the side of the junction box. If the power
supply cable must be attached to the power supply, the
polarity is not important; the Interface Unit is not
polarity sensitive. Plug the power supply into a suitable
AC power source.
Connect the supplied 3 m (10 ft) data cable with two
RJ-11 connectors, between the Controller unit and the
junction box. The orientation is not important -- either
end may be connected to either device.
Connect an appropriate length of cable (not supplied)
suitable for use with RS-232 signals, between the
LTC 8557 Series junction box and the RS-232
transmission device. If the distance between the box
and device is much over 20-30 m (60-90 ft), the use of
user-supplied short haul modems or other RS-232 line
extender devices may be required. These devices must
be able to support an RS-232 simplex transmission rate
of 9600 baud.
The LTC 8557 Series junction box provides a
removable screw terminal block for the data
connections. The terminal block has four connections
marked 1, 2, 3, & 4. See Figure 2, Junction Box
Supplied with LTC 8557 Series Kit.
Pins 1 and 2 are not used. Pin 3 is the Controller’s
RS-232 TX output, and Pin 4 is the Signal Ground
connection. Be sure to use cable suitable for RS-232
signals. Connect the wire from terminal 3 to the RX
connection of the RS-232 transmission device.
Respectively, connect the wire from terminal 4 to the
data ground connection.
At the camera side of the RS-232 transmission device,
install the interface unit in a convenient location where
it can easily be connected to the transmission device.
NOTE: The interface unit is rated for indoor use only.
If desired, use the four holes provided to mount the
box to a flat surface.
Connect the bayonet style connector of the power
supply cable into the jack located on the side of the
interface unit. If the power supply cable must be
attached to the power supply, the polarity is not
important; the Interface Unit is not polarity sensitive.
Plug the power supply into a suitable AC power
source.
Connect a transmit wire and a signal ground wire from
the RS-232 transmission device to the desired input on
the interface unit. Either the RJ-11 or the 9-pin D type
connector input may be used. Refer to the Data
Converter Pinouts section for the appropriate pin
connections.
Next, connect the biphase control code outputs of the
interface unit to the data cable. Typically, a single
camera site receiver/driver is connected to a single
output, but each biphase output of the interface unit is
rated to handle up to eight (8) receiver/drivers when
connected in a daisy chain configuration, to a maximum
of 1.5 km (5000 ft). For a daisy chain connection, the
cable is looped through each AutoDome camera or
receiver/driver along the way. The last (and only the
last) unit in the daisy chain connection should be
terminated. All other receiver/drivers should have the
terminating resistor removed when the looping cable is
connected.
Connect shielded twisted pair cable (Belden 8760 or
equivalent) between the camera site receiver/driver
and the biphase output connections located on the
interface unit. The removable terminal blocks have
three connections: (+), (–), and (S [Shield]). See
FIGURE 1, Interface Unit Supplied with LTC 5136.
Select and maintain a wire color convention to avoid
confusion at the camera site(s).
Example: White to (+), Black to (–), and Shield to (S).
NOTE: The shield terminals of the interface unit are
connected to the Shield wire of the cable.

4.5 AutoDome Camera or
Receiver/Driver Site Configuration
Follow the standard installation instructions provided
with the AutoDome Camera or Allegiant Series
Receiver/Driver unit to connect the data cable to the
unit. Set the address of the AutoDome camera or
receiver/driver, to the camera number that will be
selected on the Controller keypad. AutoDome cameras
also support address setting via the on-screen menu
Fast Address feature. The next section outlines setting of
the AutoDome’s Fast Address.
Video signals from the camera site are NOT connected
to the Controller. The video signal(s) from the camera
site(s) should be connected to an appropriate viewing
monitor or other video processing equipment (switcher,
multiplexer, etc.).
5SETTINGFAST ADDRESS
FEATURE
Use the AutoDome’s Fast Address feature to set the
AutoDome address via the controller and on-screen
menus instead of using the switch address
(thumbwheel). Fast Address can also be used to change
addresses, even if the thumbwheel switch is set.
The following is an example of how to Fast Address an
AutoDome (ID number 26636, logical camera #3).
The AutoDome being Fast Addressed has the switch
address (thumbwheel) set to 0.
1. Call up the camera to the screen you are
viewing (i.e. CAMERA-3-ENTER).
2. Press ON-999-ENTER. The screen shown in
FIGUREFA1 is displayed.
•Any camera without a Fast Address will
display the screen in FIGURE FA1 when
the ON-999-ENTER is used. Make sure you
are viewing the camera that you want to
program.
•If the camera’s Fast Address is the same as the
keyboard address, ON-999-ENTER will
make the camera enter the Fast Address
mode. This is required to change or disable a
Fast Address.
•ON-998-ENTER causes all cameras,
regardless of Fast address status, to enter the
addressing mode.
Figure FA1
3. Press ON-26-ENTER. The screen shown in
FIGURE FA2 will be displayed. At this point,
any camera whose ID does not begin with 26
will exit the Fast Addressing mode.

5. Press ON-1-ENTER and the address is set.
Once the Fast Address is set, the switch address
(thumbwheel) is ignored. The Fast Address is
stored to non-volatile memory, and will not
change if power is removed or factory defaults
are restored (SET-899-ENTER).
•To reset the dome’s address to the switch
address (thumbwheel), repeat the above
steps and end by pressing OFF-1-ENTER.
•To check/confirm the address, call up the
camera and press ON-997-ENTER. This
command causes all cameras to briefly
display their addresses.
6CONTROLLER OPERATION
Operation is quite simple. If the camera number to be
controlled is not visible in the LED displays, use the
numeric keypad to select the desired camera, then
press ENTER. The camera can now be operated using
the appropriate joystick and/or lens controls. If
appropriate, pre-position scenes and auxiliary functions
can also be entered.
Note that a delay of more than 3-4 seconds while
entering a selection results in the Controller returning
to the default camera entry mode. If this condition
occurs, start the selection again, from the beginning.
A complete description of the controls and indicators is
provided in the next section.
6.1 Controls/Indicators
LED Indicators: The four digit, 7-segment LED display
is used to display data entry and the selected camera
