The Integration Server is a software package used to
integrate multiple systems that are not ordinarily
compatible. These systems can include Video Switchers,
Point of Sale systems, Fire/Burglar alarms, Access
Control, or HVAC systems.
Devices to be controlled can communicate 3 ways:
1. RS-232. Up to 16 COM ports are supported. The

command codes for each device must be supplied by

the manufacturer or known to the installer, and are

programmed into the Integration Server. The

Integration Server listens to the COM port for the

specific strings of data programmed by the installer.

The server can also transmit preprogrammed strings

of data onto the COM port to control devices.

2. Digital I/O. A digital I/O card (National Instruments™ #

PC-DIO-24) can be installed in the PC. This card can

either control relays wired to external devices, or can

monitor relays controlled by external devices.

3. Directly to an Allegiant Switcher via the Master

Control Software (LTC 8059) or the Allegiant GUI

package (LTC 8850). If the PC is running either of

these in conjunction with the Integration Server,

communication to the Allegiant switcher can take

place without additional external wiring.
