4.3 Video Inputs and Looping Outputs
For each of the 4 or 8 channels there are two BNC
connectors on the rear panel. One of these connectors is to
be used as a video input while the other connector may be
used as a looping output. It does not matter which
connector is used as the input and which is used as the
looping output. Each pair of BNCs provide an automatic
termination function that applies a 75 ohm load to the
incoming video signal when the cable is connected to either
jack. When “loop-through” operation is desired, the second
cable connection automatically unterminates the input
providing the required high impedance for “loop-through”
operation. The jacks act as automatic switches. The looping
video outputs are provided to supply video to other video
equipment. When looping, the last piece of equipment on
the video line should be terminated
4.4 Monitor Output
The monitor outputs are designed for a 75 ohm load.
Therefore if you loop the monitor output cable through
multiple monitors or their accessories, be sure their
terminations are set to Hi-Z. Only the last unit on the line
should have its termination set to 75 ohm.
LTC 5104 Series: A single monitor output permits
switched camera video through this connection.
LTC 5108 Series: These switchers may be used with one
or two monitors depending on system requirements. See
Operating Mode section and Typical Installation
illustration.
4.6 Programming System Setup
Configuration options are provided through on-screen
menus. These menus are accessed by using the DWELL key.
With video present on the monitor, a momentary press and
release of the DWELL key will gain easy access to the Dwell
Time Menu (see Screen 1).
Screen 1
The remaining configuration menus (8 for LTC 5104 Series
and 9 for the LTC 5108 Series) are also accessed with the
DWELL key. With video present on the monitor, press and
hold the DWELL key for 1 second; the monitor will display
Screen 2.
4.5 Alarm Inputs and Output
(Accessory Output)
A cable with a connector is supplied to connect alarm
closures or other accessories to the switcher.
The alarm inputs can be triggered by either a contact closure
selectable (normally open or close) (e.g., switch or relay) to
ground or by a logic ground (e.g., motion detector output).
The alarm output creates a short between the two output
pins when an alarm occurs and open-circuits the pins when
no alarms are active (triggered). The alarm output has a
maximum carrying current of 1 A and a maximum switching
voltage of 40 V AC/DC. The alarm output can be used to
signal a VCR, lamp, or relay.
CAUTION: Do not apply external voltages to
the alarm inputs. Use only isolated closures.
Precautions should be taken particularly on
long runs, to prevent pickup of spurious
signals from associated wiring which may give
false inputs or damage the switcher.
Screen 2
To advance through these 7 or 8 menus, press the
RUN/next key. When the last menu is displayed, the
RUN/next key will automatically exit the configuration mode.
The configuration mode will also exit automatically if there is
no activity for 60 seconds. Use the DWELL key again to exit
the configuration mode immediately. Any changes made
during configuration are acknowledged regardless of how the
configuration mode is exited.

4.9 Operating Mode
LTC 5108 Series Only
Two modes of operation can be selected for the LTC 5108
Series switchers (see Screen 2). The two modes only affect
Monitor B; Monitor A continuously sequences regardless of
mode. In the Sequencing Mode, Monitor B will show either
an alarm call up of a camera, a camera under a Hold
condition or normal sequencing of cameras. In the Blanking
Mode, Monitor B will show either an alarm call-up of a
camera, a camera under a Hold condition or a blank screen.

4.8 Dwell Time
This menu (see Screen 1) is used to program dwell times of
1 second to 64 seconds for the cameras. There are two
modes of dwell that may be chosen; All Cameras and
Individual Cameras. All Cameras mode will set the displayed
dwell time for all 4 or 8 cameras. Individual Cameras mode
will set the displayed dwell time for only the camera number
indicated on-screen. Upon entry into the Dwell Time menu,
the dwell mode will default to All Cameras. The Individual
Cameras mode is entered using the numeric keys or the
RUN/next key. The RUN/next key will select individual
camera dwell times by sequencing forward. Each numeric key
will select that particular camera input. The video of the
selected Individual camera will be displayed (on the monitor
for LTC 5104 Series or on both monitors for the LTC 5108
Series), provided the camera input has not been skipped. If a
camera input is skipped, its dwell time menu can be entered
but the unit will not switch video to that camera input. Since
no dwell menu can be displayed if there is no video to that
input, it is recommended to skip all camera inputs without
video before attempting to set Individual dwell times. Once
in Individual mode, the Dwell Time menu must be exited and
re-entered if All Cameras mode is desired. The SKIP/clr key
decreases displayed dwell time and the ALARM key increases
the dwell time. The default is All Cameras with a dwell of 3
seconds.

5.1 DWELL Key
The DWELL key is used to enter the Dwell Time
configuration menu and to enter other menus. A momentary
push will enter the Dwell Time menu. Holding DWELL for
over 1 second will enter the program mode.
5.2 SKIP/clr Key
The SKIP/clr key has two uses. The first use is to program
which cameras will be in the switching sequence. This key
toggles the displayed camera in or out of the sequence. An
"X" will be lit to the left of the selected camera number if it
is excluded from the sequence. Pressing this key while a
sequence is running will immediately remove the camera
from the sequence and advance to the next camera. An
alarm closure on a skipped camera will call-up that camera.
The second use of this key is to clear the displayed camera's
alarm call-up. The cleared camera will not be called-up again
until the alarm closure occurs again for that camera.
5.3 ALARM Key
This key is used to toggle the alarm function on and off.
When the Alarm is on:
-- The alarm indicator LED is lit and the notation "MA"
(Monitor Armed) will appear on the status line (appears
only on Monitor B for the LTC 5108 Series).
-- The switcher responds to all incoming alarms. During
the alarm period, the word "ALARM" will flash on the
status line and the alarm LED will flash.
When the Alarm is off:
-- The alarm indicator LED will not be lit and the notation
"MA" will not appear on the status line.
When the alarm function is off, the switcher will not react to
incoming alarms at that moment.
5.4 RUN/next Key
The RUN/next key serves several purposes. When multiple
alarm call-ups are present, it will sequence to the next
triggered camera. If no alarm call-ups are present and a
"hold" is present, then the key removes that hold. Lastly, if
there are no "holds" or alarm call-ups, then by momentarily
pressing the key, the sequence can be immediately advanced
to the next camera input, or by continuously pressing the
key, the sequence will rapidly sequence. The RUN/next LED
lights whenever switchers are sequencing, and goes out
whenever a HOLD is issued.
5.5 Numeric Channel Keys
These keys will issue a "hold" on their respective camera
inputs. The monitor (only Monitor B for the LTC 5108
Series) will stop sequencing (or BLANKING in the
BLANKING mode) and display that camera's video until
either:
A. Another Numeric Channel key is pressed, or
B. The RUN/next key is pressed, or
C. An alarm call-up occurs on another camera.
If the Channel key is held down, the display of any cameras
currently in an alarm condition can be overridden.
