  • Page 3: Overview

    Overview Introduction The 8180 SIP Audio Alerter is a SIP compliant & multicast IP speaker for loud ringing, alerting, and voice paging. The 8180 can be integrated with any Communication Server (hosted or enterprise) that supports 3rd party SIP Endpoints or multicast paging.
  • Page 4 Configuration & Provisioning Configure the 8180 through a web interface control panel or by using the program buttons on the back of the unit. Central provisioning may also be used to allow units to be preconfigured for a specific server prior to deployment in the field.
  • Page 5 SIP Extensions The 8180 connects to an on-premise or hosted communication server in the same way as a SIP telephone. To register the 8180 with the server requires the following information: 1. IP address (eg 192.168.1.1) or domain name (eg myserver.com) of the SIP Server 2.

    Connection to Network and Obtaining IP Address After connecting the 8180 to a network PoE port, the blue indicator light will turn on during initialization. The 8180 will then attempt to obtain an IP address from the DHCP server. If unsuccessful, the 8180 will default to the fixed IP address 192.168.1.111.

  • Page 17: Multicast Overview

    Multicast Overview In addition to the ring and page features, the 8180 is able to send and receive IP audio multicast messages over the network to support larger deployment for both paging and ring/notification. This provides a scalable and efficient method of building large scale notification solutions.

  • Page 19: Multicast Technical Information

    Multicast Technical Information Each 8180, or any Algo IP endpoint involved, has its own IP address, and shares a common multicast IP and port number (multicast zone) for multicast packets. The Master unit transmits to a configurable multicast zone, and all the Slave units listen to the multicast zones assigned to them.

  • Page 20: Multicast Master

    Note: Expanded Zones are only available in Slave mode. The Algo 8301 Paging Adapter & Scheduler, 8186 SIP Horn Speaker, and 8188 SIP Ceiling Speaker can be used as Master device for Expanded Zones.
  • Page 21 The 8180 may receive or broadcast multicast paging compatible with Polycom* phones on premise group paging protocol. The 8180 may be configured as a slave to play Polycom page announcements, or as a master to generate page announcements to Polycom phones.

  • Page 28: Provisioning

    Provisioning Provisioning allows installers to pre-configure 8180 units prior to installa- tion on a network. It is typically used for large deployments to save time and ensure consistent setups. There are two different Provisioning methods that can be used: via DHCP Option 66 or via a Static Server.

  • Page 30 The specific configuration file will only be downloaded by the 8180 with the MAC address specified in the configuration file name. Since all the necessary settings can be included in this file, the 8180 will be ready to work immediately after the configuration file is downloaded. The MAC address of each 8180 can be found on the back label of the unit.
  • Page 31 During the Provisioning process, the 8180 will try to download a file called algop8180-tones.md5. If the file exists, the 8180 will compare that file to its internal file. If the files do not match, the 8180 will load a compressed file called algop8180-tones.zip that contain all the new or replaced tones, decompress it, and add the tones to the 8180 list.
