Page 8: Ipervoice In Brief
The IP network used by IPervoice must be private and isolated from other IP networks present in the building, in order not to compromise the features and the proper operation of the system.
Page 9 IPervoice is a system based on an “open” communication standard. The use of the SIP protocol (Session Initiation Protocol) allows the connection of third party devices that use the same standard. However, to ensure the system correct operation, it is advisable to use only URMET certified devices.

IPervoice, transmitted on the IP communication channel. In encoding/decoding phase, the codecs also perform the compression (and/or decompression) of the data, reducing the data volume, in order to make the stream of encoded data easier to be transmitted.
Page 11 (high resolution of images, number of frames per second), keeping the amount of data needed in order to send the information on the network very low. IPervoice uses two different standard codecs; the first one is specific for video information, the second is for audio data: H.264:...

PoE (Power Over Ethernet). Also for this reason the installation is simpler and more economical. • The possibility of using optical fibre to cover long distances means that IPervoice does not have distance limits between the IP network devices.
Page 13 • 16 video door phone apartment stations for each apartment. The IP network used by IPervoice must be private and isolated from other IP networks present in the building, in order not to compromise the features and the proper operation of the system.
Page 14: System Architecture
YSTEM RCHITECTURE Observing the architecture of the IPervoice network, it can be noted that the system is structured on two levels: • The “external” level, used to create the framework of the system. The network used for communication between devices is fully IP-compatible.
Page 15: The External Level: The Ip Network
EVEL NETWORK The framework of IPervoice is made by the IP network, used to connect all the digital devices of the system. On the “external” level of IPervoice devices that perform operations concerning the building structure instead of the single building are usually present. For the laying of the network, a cable available on the market can be used, provided that it is CAT5 certified.
Page 16: The External Level Ip Devices
EVEL DEVICES On the External Level IP network of IPervoice there are many devices that have different characteristics and features. Some of them are optional and depend on the required features, some are fundamental for the correct operation of the whole system. One of them, for example, is the system server 1039/1 that coordinates and manages many services provided by IPervoice.
Page 17 ELEKTA IP Call Module 1039/13 The call module 1039/13 is characterized by a special front panel made of smoked glass. All the buttons are “soft-touch” and there are no movable mechanical elements. It can independently manage two different outputs, the first one used to open a pedestrian door (both with capacitive discharge and with relay contacts), the second to control for example an automatic gate or barrier.
Page 18 Provided with a front panel made of vandal-proof stainless steel, the call module 1039/18 is specifically designed for IPervoice. It can independently manage two different outputs, the first one used to open a pedestrian door (both with capacitive discharge and with relay contacts), the second to control for example an automatic gate or barrier.
Page 19 IP video 2-button door unit 1039/72 The video door unit 1039/72 is dedicated to the IPervoice system and is designed on two-module Sinthesi style. It is equipped with a CCD colour camera and two configurable call buttons. If needed, the number of call buttons can be increased by means of the expansion module 1038/17.
Page 20 Protection degree: IP42 PC Concierge switchboard 1039/41 IPervoice system implements the concierge switchboard function using a Personal Computer and a specific software application. The PC must be equipped with an audio card, in order to perform audio communications with the call modules, VoIP telephones and terminals inside the apartments.
Page 21 Installation: table-top and wall mounting VoIP ATA Interface 4501/30 The VoIP ATA interface allows to connect to IPervoice IP network a traditional analog telephone, making it a IP, SIP based telephone for Voice over IP (VoIP) applications. The interface 4501/30 is also equipped with a PSTN port that can be used to connect it to a traditional telephone line.

Page 25: The Internal Level: The Ip Riser Columns
EVEL RISER COLUMNS IPervoice has been designed as IP based digital video door phone system, so, besides the system part that forms the “External level”, also the building riser structure can follow the same principle. This is not the only option; as described below, the “Internal level” can be realized with the dedicated IPervoice CAT5 bus.
Page 26 In the second case, the figure shows a minimal solution, that can be used when the number of apartments is limited. In this way, the number of devices is lower, allowing to reduce system costs and consumption. Figure 5: The internal level – building IP riser – reduced solution...

Page 28: The Internal Level: The Dedicated Cat5 Riser Columns
Also in this case, Urmet provides a specific cable, with a blue sheath (1069/91), suitable for laying it in ducts with 230V cables inside. The flexibility of IPervoice is unlimited regarding the number of riser columns in a system, so it is possible to make installations with a large number of users. On the riser column a second audio channel can be present by adding a twisted pair cable (e.g.
Page 29 Figure 7: The internal level – distribution on multiple CAT5 risers With the riser distributor 1039/54, it is possible to install more than one riser column for the apartments. The 103954 can provide a maximum of four riser columns making installation in larger building more flexible. Warning: the riser distributor allows the wiring of several riser columns instead of a single riser.
Page 30 Column power supply unit for CAT5 1039/20 The power supply unit 1039/20 is used to power the devices of the riser column and the apartment devices. The power supply is directly injected on the communication BUS. Warning: to extend the CAT5 BUS up to the maximum distance of 900 metres, a power supply unit Main technical characteristics must be installed every 100 metres.

The decoder provides a floor call function for each apartment, an auxiliary alarm signal –...
Page 32: The Internal Level: The Ip Apartments
EVEL APARTMENTS Figure 8 shows the wiring inside the apartments connected to IPervoice IP network. From the IP switch, that must be provided with PoE Ethernet ports (e.g. the 1039/45), it is possible to reach apartments (up to 4, in this case). Now it is possible to connect the iModo device (1717/2) as advanced apartment terminal, used to access all IPervoice basic and advanced functions.
Page 33 Figure 9 shows some typical features of iModo terminal. Figure 9: iModo Terminal – main features Note: Besides iModo terminal, in a short time other IP terminals will be available: they will complete the line dedicated to IP apartments and allow to extend and integrate IP system features.

Page 39 This device allows the alarm signals generated by the alarm control panel 1061 to be sent to the concierge switchboard of IPervoice system. Warning: The interface works only if used with the control panel 1061/4 or 1061/6 and not with other intruder alarm systems.
Page 40: Multi-Server Architecture
ULTI ERVER RCHITECTURE In large systems where high reliability is required, a special solution can be implemented. This solution is called Multi-Server Architecture. The block diagram of Figure 11 shows a possible deployment. Figure 11: Multi-Server architecture – Block diagram...
Page 41 ERVER ODE CHARACTERISTICS Several buildings in the same residential area, can compose a global IPervoice system. This one thus can reach considerable dimension; such big residential areas, comprising several Buildings, must sometimes be managed in a centralized mode, keeping every group of Buildings controlled by its own server independent, in order to ensure a high reliability level of the whole system.

IP network. There are two valid solutions: 1) Inside the IP network of a single IPervoice system (in the example, the switchboard #1 and #3) 2) To the infrastructure network level (the switchboard #2) In case of malfunction or maintenance of the network infrastructure level, the first solution allows the operation of a switchboard, only for the system where the switchboard is connected.

Page 44: Ipervoice Services
ERVOICE ERVICES IPervoice features are provided as services. Each service has its specific function, but at the same time it also interacts, if necessary, with the other services active in the system; for example, the CCTV service manages the cameras and interacts with the Video door phone service during user activity.
Page 45 Figure 12: Video door phone service – Basic diagram Alternative options are possible: a configuration in which the system is fully implemented on the IP network and the apartment stations are VoIP telephones (4501/5) (Figure 13), or another configuration, where there are no apartment stations, but only concierge switchboards 1039/41 and, if necessary, door units based on the module 1039/72 (Figure 14).
Page 46: Services Functions
To “call” an apartment, a concierge switchboard, a VoIP telephone or simply a system user, these devices must be uniquely identified; this identifier is named “call code”. IPervoice provides the installer with two modes for assigning the call codes. The first one is based on the system topologic diagram, and it is also the system internal logic;...
Page 47 In the model based on the topologic code, the eight digits are divided into 4 pairs; each pair is used to identify a hierarchical portion of the system, as shown in Figure 15. In the example, the first pair identifies the building or block (B1), the second the stair (S2), the third the floor (F4) and the fourth and last the apartment (A1).

A higher number means that the call is more important and has higher priority. Priority Type of communication with the apartment station Switchboard during “Room monitor”...
Page 50 UDIO CHANNEL MANAGEMENT ON THE RISER COLUMN HOICE METHODS IPervoice allows a second audio channel to be wired on each riser column. This optional function is useful in order to increase the number of simultaneous communications in the same riser column (Figure 6 at page 28), in particular when a video door phone call and an apartment station call for the switchboard occur at the same time.
Page 51 In any case, the use of the second audio channel, if present, or the closing of a communication on the main channel in case of a new incoming call, is managed by the system using a series of choice methods. There are two application diagrams: the first is used if the incoming call is a video door phone call (audio and video), the second if the call is a door phone call (audio only).
Page 52 ANAGEMENT OF CALL MODULE LOCKS AND DOOR LOCK RELEASE CODES The call modules 1039/13 and 1039/18 have two separate lock outputs. The first output can be used to directly activate a fail locked type electric release. The second output is via a relay contact and can be used to control for example an automatic gate or barrier.
Page 53 ALL FORWARDING Video door phone calls from a call module to an apartment station, can be forwarded to a mobile device, such as a smartphone or tablet. The IPerVoice system must be permanently connected to the Internet via a broadband to use this function.
Page 54: The Switchboard Service
WITCHBOARD ERVICE In the IPervoice system, the service that makes it possible to manage the Concierge Switchboard is performed by a software application called “Switchboard”, developed for Windows Vista and Windows operating systems (Figure 16).
Page 55 Figure 16: "Switchboard" application IPervoice is unlimited regarding the number of switchboards that can be present in the system, so, if required by operative requirements, the concierge service can be distributed to more units, according to competence areas. The personal computer minimum requirements are described in the product list at page 20; for the configuration of the optional devices, two solutions are available.

Page 57: Service Functions
If the call comes from an apartment station, a call button must be configured to associate it to the selected switchboard This operation is performed by the installer via the configuration web frontend, present on the IPervoice server...
Page 58 ALLS FROM THE SWITCHBOARD The switchboard can call any other system user, a resident, a VoIP telephone or also another switchboard. The call is performed by entering the code or using the address directory, that can be read by the switchboard software. By using the “auto-on” function, the switchboard can at any time establish an audio/video communication with a call module.
Page 59 intercepted by the switchboard. The attendant can speak with the visitor and transfer the communication to the user or act as an intermediary, speaking with the user and the visitor. In NIGHT mode, the switchboard does not perform the concierge service for main call stations, that will directly send the call to the desired apartment station .
Page 60: Panic Service (Panic Alarm)
ANIC LARM The Panic Service present in IPervoice system allows to send a rescue request from apartment stations to their competence area switchboards. This alarm has no effects on audio/video communications active in the column from which it comes; the alarm sent to the switchboard is stored in the system log, in order to allow the attendant to manage it according to the system configuration.
Page 61: Room Monitor Service
In the apartment there is at least one “hands-free” station, as for example the model 1707/1. The room monitor has been enabled on the apartment station by IPervoice FrontEnd. The hands-free apartment station, enabled for "room-monitor" feature, must be configured as "Master"...
Page 62: Local Activations Service
CTIVATIONS ERVICE This service allows to activate relay outputs according to events that can occur in IPervoice system. The devices with usable relays are the “special decoder” modules 1039/80, that have two independent relay outputs, also associated to two inputs which allow the local control of outputs. Modules 1039/80 are directly connected to the IP network and so can be installed in any place of the residential building.
Page 63: The Cctv Service
CCTV S ERVICE Through the CCTV service, the users can display on their video door phones the images captured by the system cameras. The cameras can be the call module cameras or those connected via the IP servers. The displaying is performed in cyclic mode: by pressing the “auto-on” button on the apartment station, the user can see the images coming from the first camera, then the second one and so on.
Page 64 The association among cameras and users or groups of users is configured by the installer with the configuration web frontend present on the IPervoice server. By pressing the button on his apartment station, the user will request the system to select the next camera present in the list associated to that user.
Page 65: The Access Control Service
ONTROL ERVICE The IPervoice system is provided with an embedded access control service, used to control the opening of different passages, such as doors, gates, barriers and so on, after identification of proximity keys 1125/50. To control the way opening, both the call modules 1039/13 and 1039/18 can be used, which are provided with an embedded proximity reader or the IP key reader 1039/88 can be used.
Page 66: Proximity Key Management
5.7.2 T ANDS IPervoice makes it possible to define one or more time bands to limit the access to the building. For example, the maintenance men must not be enabled to enter during the night, weekends or holidays. Three time profiles can be configured: The management operations of keys and associated passages are performed using the web application available through the system server.

/18), but, as described later, a local directory can be configured, using the configuration web application embedded in each telephone 4501/5. IPervoice system supports only VoIP telephones certified by Urmet; other telephone types could not work or make the whole system work incorrectly.
Page 68: Technical Prescriptions
XTERNAL EVEL IPervoice “Street Side” is composed by a 100 Mb/s Ethernet network, so the topology is star point-to- point. In each centre there is a PoE switch (1039/44 or 1039/45). Each star centre is the PoE switch (1039/44 or 1039/45), where all IP IPervoice devices are connected.
Page 69 Switch-to-switch branch, used to connect PoE switches in order to extend the Ethernet network. In all cases, the max. allowed distance is that defined by IEEE 802.3 standards for Fast Ethernet networks (100 Mb/s), connected with UTP CAT5 cable: according to these standards, the distance between two Ethernet devices must not be longer than 100 m Figure 24: External level, IP network –...
Page 70: Prescriptions For Internal Level
RESCRIPTIONS FOR NTERNAL EVEL As regards the “Riser side”, devices are connected in series: in each device there is one “input” and one “output” RJ45 socket; the last one is used to connect the next device. This is the mode generally used on all the riser, except for intercom interfaces (1039/36) used inside the apartments, that use a star topology for their connected apartment stations.
Page 71 Figure 25: Internal level, riser – topology and distances The main rules to be respected that are always valid are the following: The max. extension of a riser, except derived stations inside apartments, must not be greater than 900 m.
Page 72 On the riser, the max. distance between a power supply (1039/20) and the next one must be shorter or equal to 100 m. The max. number of power supply units that can be installed in a riser is 9. The max. number of 4-user decoders (1039/34) that can be installed between a power supply and the next one (i.e.
Page 73 Figure 26: Internal level, riser – topology and distances with riser distributor If more than one riser is needed, a riser distributor (1039/54) can be installed on the output of the first power supply. Even though the available risers are four, remember that the distributor, that is a passive component, does not change riser dimensioning parameters, that remain the same.
Page 74 Figure 27: Livello interno, colonna montante – topologia e distanze con interfacce intercomunicanti If in apartments one or more intercom interface 1039/36 is needed, install a power supply 1039/20 on the derived branch of the 4-user decoder. This in order to power apartment stations and intercom interfaces.

11.3.2 F LOORS ACCESSIBLE BY THE RESIDENTS OF THE APARTMENT This section, that is shown expanded in Figure 142, makes it possible to select the floors to which the apartment residents can access. This function is related to the use of the lift interface 1039/37, that allows residents to be associated to a list of floors enabled for the use of the lift.
Page 196: In The Calling Call Module
11.3.3 I N THE CALLING CALL MODULE This section describes the configuration data concerning the interaction between apartment and call modules and vice versa. This data is related to two main functions: the first one, provided by the devices 1039/13 and 1039/18, allows some apartment parameters to be changed from the door unit; the second one allows a specific message to be shown to visitors, that will be displayed on the call module when the resident is absent.
Page 197: Path Images
11.3.4 P MAGES This paragraph will deal with subjects already described in the previous section. In this case, the target is the visitor, helping them to visually find the Block that includes the apartment they are visiting. For each call module associated to the apartment, it is possible to choose an image, that will appear on the display when the door is opened to let the visitor in.
Page 198: Call Buttons
11.3.5 C UTTONS On the apartment stations there are some configurable buttons (seven max.), that can send commands outside the apartment. They are mostly used, when the apartment station handset is off- hook (or the conversation button has been pressed, in hands-free models), to call a switchboard, to call another apartment in the same riser column (managed by the same IP gateway), or to call a VoIP telephone (Figure 145).
Page 199: Special Functions
Competence area switchboards The call is sent only to switchboards with competence on the apartment VoIP Phone The call is sent to the VoIP telephone selected from the pull-down menu. Apartment In this case, the call is sent to an apartment. The selection is made by entering the topological code of the apartment to be called, which must be managed by the same IP gateway.
Page 200 Even though the commands for special decoders 1039/80 outputs are similar to those already described (for example, on page 132 or page 143), there are two options, described in the following table and concerning two new aspects: the “special buttons” and the cameras, activated in auto-on cycle. Special buttons The system executes the command on the configured outputs when the special button, the same selected from the pull-down menu, is pressed.
Page 201: Resident Management
11.4 R ESIDENT ANAGEMENT As already described, the IPervoice system manages the residents data, by associating them to the apartments. So, the system creates “residents address books” linked to their respective blocks and stairs, instead of a single general directory.
Page 202 Click on “Add a resident”, under the title, to gain access to the data entry page. If some residents have already been added, they will appear in the list, as shown in Figure 148.
