Dry contact closure input Multicasting Multiple Algo endpoints in a SIP environment require only one device to register as a SIP extension. Multicasting capabilities allow the SIP registered strobe to flash and simultaneously stream multicast events to the other Algo strobes, speakers and paging adapters in any combination and number of endpoints.
If there is no DHCP server found the 8128 SIP Strobe Light will default to the static IP address 192.168.1.111. Most often however the 8128 will be assigned an IP address. To determine the IP address for the 8128 download the Algo locator tool to find Algo devices on your network: www.algosolutions.com/locator 4.
