7USER INFORMATION

7.1 General

The Allegiant system is factory-supplied with various user-selectable features set to their default states (the main Allegiant system Installation Manual contains complete descriptions). Since these features are user- selectable and have a significant effect on system behavior, some of the descriptions below may not apply to your system configuration.

7.2 Keyboard Login Procedure

Two modes of keyboard access exist. The factory default settings, allow the keyboard to be used as soon as it is connected to an operating Allegiant system. The second mode requires operators to logon to the keyboard before access to the system is permitted. A valid User number and password are required. If the login feature is being used, the system installer or administrator typically provides this information to all operators requiring system access.

Perform the following steps to login to the keyboard:

1.It the keyboard is displaying a camera and monitor number, it is already logged on; no action is required. When the keyboard is in a logged off state, the left side LEDs display 3 flashing dashes.

2.Press ON. A 'U' should appear in the LED display as a prompt for entering a User number.

3.Enter your User number via the numeric keypad, then press ENTER. Up to 32 user numbers are available (128 for Allegiant LTC 8900 models).

4.If the entry is incorrect, press CLEAR and repeat the above step.

5.Press ENTER.

6.Verify that the keyboard monitor display now shows a 'P'.

7.Enter the password (maximum of six digits). The keyboard camera display indicates the number of digits entered, but not the actual password. Press ENTER when finished entering the user password.

8.If the User number or password is invalid, the display returns to the flashing dashes mode.

9.If the User number and password are valid, you will be logged onto the system. The keyboard’s LEDs now indicate a monitor and camera currently under control by the keyboard.

EXAMPLE: ON 12 ENTER 123456 ENTER

This example shows User #12 with password #123456 logging onto the system.

7.3Keyboard Log Off Procedure

If the logon feature is not enabled, it will not be possible to log off the keyboard. If the feature has been enabled and you are currently logged on, press USER, then press OFF. The logged off keyboard displays flashing dashes in the keyboard LED display.

7.4Modem Dialing (applies to LTC 8555/02 and LTC 8555/03

models only)

The LTC 8555/02 and LTC 8555/03 keyboard models support the ability to dial the phone number of an attached modem. When the keyboard is offline, pressing ENTER causes it to go into dial mode. Modem initialization takes a few seconds, then the keyboard displays "dial" in the camera number display.

Enter the phone number via the keypad. The "*" (star) button can be used to insert a pause between digits. The digits scroll to the left in the monitor display as the phone number is entered. Use CLEAR to backspace over the digits in the reverse order that they were entered. Although the modem remembers all digits entered, the keyboard only remembers the last four, so if CLEAR is pressed repeatedly, the display begins to show periods after it has cleared 4 digits.

Once the entire number has been entered, press ENTER to initiate modem dialing. Press USER at any time to cancel dialing. Dialing is also cancelled if CLEAR or ENTER is pressed when no digits have been entered.

The keyboard will flash the word "dial" in its display until a connection with the system is established, and it begins to receive data from the Allegiant switcher. If no data is received within one minute, the keyboard will time out and return to the flashing dashes mode.

If the modem is online, and the user is logged in, pressing USER 190 ENTER forces the modem to hang up immediately.
