Receiver Operation

Antenna jack. This connector is used to connect an appropriate Trango receiver antenna. The antenna authorized for use with this unit is the AD900-9 patch. The connector used is an SMA type and is somewhat fragile. Tighten the connector only finger-tight, no more than 8 lb-in

Data interfaces. There are two data interfaces: a terminal block and a male DB9 connector. Refer to the drawing on page 9. In order to avoid damage to the unit, do not use both the terminal block and the DB9 for data output simultaneously. For more information, visit our website, www.trangosys.com.

1Terminal block. Two lugs serve as the output for simplex data from 1200 to 19200 bps. When transmitting under RS485/422 protocols, data connections to the PTZ driver are made on RX+ and RX– of the terminal block. For RS232, the connections are to RXD and GND. The PTZ-900RXdoes not use the TX+ and TX– connectors.

2DB9 connector. Attach the programming cable, CBLDAT-2, to this connector in order to run the TrangoLink set-up program. Refer to the instructions on page 11. This interface can also be used for con- necting data output to a PTZ driver, but it might be difficult to close the unit while a cable is attached.

Power input. Accepts a power source between 6 and 13 volts DC. It is highly recommended that the supplied power adapters (7VDC) be used to reduce the heat dissipated from the unit. If another power adapter is to be used, ensure that it is well regulated (±5%). Batteries may be used as external power sources as well. The nominal current draw is 200 milliamperes.

LED. The LED has three functional modes as follows:

1Alternating green and red: The unit is waiting for a command from TrangoLink (twenty seconds after startup only).

2Red: The unit is ready to receive data from the PTZ-900TXtransmitter.

3Blinking green: The unit is receiving data.
