USING THE CM6800E-48X8 AS A SATELLITE DEVICE IN A 9700 SYSTEM
The CM6800E-48X8 can function as a remote satellite switcher in a 9700 System (a “9700 System” is any matrix system using
a CM9700-CC1; the CM9740/9760 systems are also supported). You can view and control up to 96 video inputs on the
CM6800 either locally (from the CM6800), or remotely (from 9700 System keyboard operators).
The following connection instructions refer to the CM9700-CC1; the same instructions also apply to the CM9760-CC1 and the
CM9740-CC1.
Instructions are also provided for programming the CM6800E-48X8 as a satellite device within the 9700 System configuration
files. Note that the programming steps differ, depending on whether you are using the CM9760-MGR System Manager
software or the CM9700-MGR System Manager software. Instructions for both applications are provided.
INSTALL THE CM6800E AS A SATELLITE DEVICE
1. Install the CM6800E-48X8, in either a 48 x 8 or 96 x 16 configuration, and connect the cameras. Refer to the instructions in the
Installation
section.
You can also connect the following optional components:
• PTZ receivers
• internal alarms
• external alarms; up to four ALM2064 units can be connected, using COM 3
• local monitor and keyboard for programming the CM6800E-48X8 (or you can program the CM6800E from a keyboard connected
to the CM9760 system)
2. Use a straight data cable to connect port 7 on the CM6800E-48X8 to the next available sercom port on the CM9760-CC1. Refer to
the port assignment table in the CM9740/CM9760 System documentation.
If the CM6800E-48X8 is more than 6 feet away from the CM9760-CC1, use two wall blocks and additional cables as needed.
Connect the wall block pins 1, 2, 5, 7, and 8 at each end.
3. Connect video cable tie lines from the CM6800E-48X8 monitor output ports to the video input BNC receptacles on the CM9760-MXB.
The number of CM6800E cameras that the 9700 System can control at any one time, depends on the number of tie lines connected
between the two systems. If you connect two tie lines, the 9700 System can control a maximum of two CM6800E cameras at one time.
You can connect a maximum of eight tie lines.
Note that you must use the CM6800E-48X8 monitor outputs in sequential order, starting with monitor output 1. If you use a
local monitor to program the CM6800E-48X8, the local monitor must have the highest assigned number.
