INTRODUCTION
GENERAL
The CTI/1 is designed to provide conversion from RS422/485 serial telemetry to
BBV Coax Telemetry based systems.
Up the Coax telemetry allows upgrading of static cameras to PTZ without the
need for additional cabling.
The RS422/485 input is auto detecting. The CTI/1 will understand BBV RS422 &
Pelco P @ 9600, N, 8, 1.
1 x BNC output provides Coax Telemetry, connecting to a single receiver.
1 x BNC output provides Video Loop Through.
Each unit is supplied with a 12Vdc Power Supply, Manual & Adhesive Fixings.
Please Note: The CTI/1 supports eight addresses only
Protocols supported are: BBV & Pelco P
The CTI/1 has been tested with the BBV FBM Matrix, BBV TX1500 Matrix, BBV
TX400DC/RS485 and a number of products that transmit Pelco P 9600 N81,
BBV ALWAYS RECOMMENDS THAT ALL SYSTEMS
ARE BENCH TESTED BEFORE INSTALLATION

Test Mode
There will be occasions where it will be necessary to test if the CTI/1 is sending coax telemetry to the camera or receiver
connected to the remote end of the coax. As you will see from the drawing below only one coax is needed to be connected.
This is the coax from the camera or receiver. The test can be done by simply pressing the push switch marked as SW1 on
the PCB. When the switch is pressed the camera or receiver will receive a pan right a half speed, on release of the switch a
stop will be sent. It is important to remember that if the camera or receiver is fully zoomed it may reduce the overall pan
speed.
