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, and keyboard actions
can be viewed in real time on the PC screen and, if desired, logged to the PC hard
drive. The LTC 8850/00 GUI Software can also be used to enable a special on-
screen icon for identifying controllable cameras.
The CPU inside these matrix switchers supports powerful macro capabilities. The
macros can be activated using system keyboards, system time event functions, alarm
activations, and via special function icons in the LTC 8850/00 GUI Software.
This system can serve as the master switcher in a SatelliteSwitch configuration. This
innovative feature enables a single master Allegiant system to communicate with
remotely located “Satellite” systems. Any Allegiant system model can serve as a
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 these models
are used in this type of configuration, the main system can access up to 256 cameras
located anywhere in the system.
