MAKING A CALL There are 3 ways of making a call, the most common ways are using the touchscreen or the optional telephone handset. The 3 way is to use a GPI to dial a contact (see GPIO menu). Using the Touchscreen 1) Press the ‘Mobile’...
Using the Optional Handset Interface 1) Pick up the handset (The dialling keypad will appear on the touchscreen) 2) Enter the number to call on the handset 3) Wait for the call to initiate ANSWERING A CALL There are 3 ways of answering a incoming call, the most common ways are using the touchscreen or the optional telephone handset.
DIVERTING/ TRANSFERRING A CALL BETWEEN THE HANDSET & XLRs The audio to/ from the mobile phone only ever appears on either the optional handset interface or the rear panel XLRs (or the Dante® network audio equivalent of the above). It never appears on both circuits at the same time. When you make or answer a call the audio will automatically appear on the circuit that you use.
Page 18
If you’ve answered the call on the touchscreen you’ll see this option If the handset is currently on hook it will ring and the audio won’t transfer until the handset has been answered. NOTE: It is possible to set a GPI to divert/ transfer the call between the 2 circuits. Please see the GPIO section of this handbook for more details.
SENDING DTMF TO THE LINE It is possible to send DTMF tones to the mobile phone circuit. DTMF can be sent either from the touchscreen or from the optional telephone handset. Using the Touchscreen From the Call in progress screen select the keypad icon The keypad will be then be displayed.
USING THE TOUCHSCREEN/ MENUS The touchscreen is a resistive touch type. This means that it needs a slightly more firm push to operate than an average domestic mobile phone that uses a capacitive touchscreen. Resistive touchscreens generally work well when operated by a stylus/ pen. Home Screen Name of Telecom Indication of RF...
Mobile Icon The mobile icon provides access to making calls. When you press it a call history list first appears: Click here to go to Click here to open a your contacts keyboard Indicates an Click here to return incoming (or the call outgoing call) If the ‘KBD’...

When entering the contact menu you will see a list of stored contacts, you can scroll up/ down through this list using the touchscreen. Press this Icon to add a new contact Select here to have the...
Adding a Contact The adding a contact menu is often best operated using a stylus or firm object such as a pen (with the tip retracted). The list of letters and numbers can be scrolled through (left / right) using the touchscreen.
The Settings Icon Pressing the settings Icon allows access to the settings menu. You can scroll up/ down through the settings options, the available options are: Network Display Sounds Auto answer enable Call transfers divert to Dante only NOT handset handset is disabled MAC Address About Select the setting that...
Network Settings Options There are just 4 options in the network settings menu. The default option should always be ‘Auto’ whereby the phone will try to lock onto 4G and then only try to lock onto 3G or 2G if the there is no 4G (or 3G) signals available. If you select the 2G, 3G or 4G options then this forces the phone only to try to communicate on that type of network circuit.
Display Settings Just two options are available when in the display settings menu. When adjusting the Brightness of the display a fader appears on the screen. This fader can be operated either by using the touchscreen or by using the ‘Control Shaft Encoder’...
Sound Settings The Sound Settings menu provides access to the incoming call sounder volume and options to enable the sounder and the external telephone handset ringer. Internally fitted to the PCB each phone module has a sounder. This sounder can be used to indicate an incoming call.
Auto answer enable The tick box for the auto answer enable option in the settings menu is designed to be simple and easy to use. If the tick box is ‘ticked’ then the GS-MPI005HD will answer an incoming call automatically and if it is not ticked then you must manually answer the call. Call transfers divert to Dante only NOT handset The tick box for this option disables the handset.

RISING EDGE/ FALLING EDGE GPI When setting a GPI an options screen asks if the input trigger should be a ‘RISING EDGE’ or a ‘FALLING EDGE’ RISING EDGE: Use this option if you want to trigger the GPI event when you disconnect the GPI’s input from ground.
Headphone Menu The headphone mixer menu allows you to select which source(s) and at what level it/they are sent to the front panel headphone output. To enable a source to be routed to the headphones then first the tick box next to that source must be made.
OPTIONAL DANTE®/ AES67 NETWORK INTERFACE The optional Dante®/ AES67 network interface can be factory fitted or retro fitted at a later stage if required. The interface uses Audinate’s ultimo chipset which provides 4 bi-directional network audio channels at 48kHz. The ultimo chipset is also AES67 compliant. The 4 network audio channels are split 2 for each phone module.
Getting Dante Controller If you are connecting the GS-MPI005HD MKII to a new Dante network the first thing you will need to do is to get the free Dante controller software from Audinate. This can be downloaded by visiting Audinate’s web site at www.audinate.com...
At the time of writing this manual the Dante Controller looks as per the screenshot below: The GS-MPI005HD MKII will have been named at the factory during test to allow them to be identified by the Dante controller. The format used for the factory name is: ‘MPI005HD-sn-XXX’...
The unit may be renamed in Dante controller by opening the ‘Device view’ window and selecting MPI005HD in the drop-down menu. Go to the ‘Device Config’ tab and change the name with the Rename Device box. Note if you upload a new DNT file or clear the devices config then the name will change to MPI005HD-xxXxXx whereby the ‘X’s refer to the devices MAC address.
Device Not Showing Up In Dante Controller If your Dante device does not show up in Dante Controller then the most likely issue is that the device’s IP Address is not appropriate for your network. A) It maybe that the device is set to obtain an IP address automatically using DHCP (this is the default configuration) and your network is setup for fixed IP addresses only and does not have a DHCP server.
Audinate. Turning On AES67 Mode If you want to use your GS-MPI005HD MKII on an AES67 network and it has not been set to AES67 mode then this can be set in Dante controller by double clicking the MPI005HD to open the Device View window where you will find an AES67 tab to enable AES67 support.
Sending AES67 Audio To transmit AES67 audio to the network a multicast flow must first be setup. This is done by selecting the ‘Create New Multicast Flow’ Icon in the Device View. Tick the AES67 Flow check box, then select up to 8 channels to be included in the flow then click ‘Create’...
Receiving AES67 Audio Once a compatible AES67 stream is detected on the network by Dante Controller the AES67 flows will appear in the Dante Transmitters section in the Routing tab. AES67 Restrictions AES67 flows can only be generated with the following constraints: ...
