  • Page 4: Important Safety Information

    PHOTO-SENSITIVITY seizures from flashing or flickering lights. It is possible that some flash patterns of the 8128 Strobe could trigger a seizure for some individuals under some conditions. High intensity patterns should only be selected if necessary for the 8128 Strobe to be effective.
  • Page 5: About The 8128 Strobe

     Multicasting If multiple 8128 Strobes are required, the multicasting feature requires only one of the 8128 Strobes to be activated by an input. The activated 8128 Strobe can simultaneously multicast as a master to activate the other 8128 Strobes configured as slaves.
  • Page 6: Quick Start

    Strobe will turn on each LED individually as a test and then all on at low intensity until booting is completed. 3. If there is no DHCP server found the 8128 Strobe will default to the static IP address 192.168.1.111. Most often however the 8128 Strobe will be assigned an IP address.
  • Page 7: What's Included

    2 gang electrical box for installation with wiring conduit. The 8128 Strobe is rated IP65 for wet locations however care must be taken to ensure that water does not enter the wiring cavity. The supplied gaskets or sealant must be used to protect the wiring cavity in wet environments.
  • Page 8: Wiring Connections

    Connect RJ45 jack from PoE network switch or non-PoE network and 48V 350 mA IEEE 802.3af compliant power injector. Terminal Block Relay In By default, shorting these terminals will cause the 8128 Strobe to activate. Terminal Block Relay Out By default these terminals provide a contact closure when the 8128 Strobe is active.
  • Page 9: Web Interface Login

    Web Interface Login The web interface requires a password which is "algo" by default. This password can be changed using the Admin tab after logging in the first time.

  • Page 10: Basic Settings Tab - Sip

    SIP Domain (Proxy Server) SIP Server Name or IP Address SIP Extension This is the SIP extension for the 8128 Strobe. Authentication ID May also be called Username for some SIP servers and in some cases may be the same as the SIP extension.
  • Page 11: Monitoring Mode

    Monitoring Mode There are five ways in which the 8128 Strobe can be activated. Dry contact input or multicast does not require registration with a SIP server and is discussed elsewhere in this guide. The monitoring mode selects whether SIP activation is by ring, message waiting, or subscribe/notify as described below.
  • Page 12: Basic Settings Tab - Features

    Basic Settings Tab - Features Flash Patterns Choose from 16 available patterns. The 8128 Strobe contains 8 high intensity LEDs each capable of producing 643 lumens or 198 Candela. In addition to being very bright, the LEDs can be fired simultaneously or individually for interesting effects.
  • Page 13: Flash Pattern Test

    PHOTO-SENSITIVITY seizures from flashing or flickering lights. It is possible that some flash patterns of the 8128 Strobe could trigger a seizure for some individuals under some conditions. High intensity patterns should only be selected if necessary for the 8128 Strobe to be effective.
  • Page 14: Cadence

    Relay Input Action The relay input may be used to flash the 8128 Strobe while the input is active, or latch the 8128 Strobe in an active state until cancelled by ringing the SIP ring extension.
  • Page 15: Multicast Ip Addresses

    The slave 8128 Strobes require a PoE network connection but do not require registration to the SIP server. In fact, since the 8128 Strobe can also be activated by dry contact closure, it is possible to have one or multiple 8128 Strobes activate in unison over multiple sites without any SIP server at all.
  • Page 16: Basic Settings Tab - Multicast Master Settings

    Basic Settings Tab - Multicast Master Settings Multicast Mode (Master Selected) If master is enabled the 8128 Strobe will broadcast an IP stream when activated in addition to flashing. This option is available for all activation methods (although note that the 8128 Strobe cannot be both a multicast master and slave simultaneously).
  • Page 17: Send Flash Pattern

    Send Flash Pattern Enabling this option means all 8128 Strobes in the multicast zone will mimic the flash pattern of the multicast master 8128 Strobe regardless of their individual settings. If disabled then each Strobe may have a unique flash pattern according to its settings.
  • Page 18: Basic Settings - Multicast Slave Settings

    Basic Settings - Multicast Slave Settings Multicast Mode (Slave Selected) If slave is enabled the 8128 Strobe will activate when receiving a multicast message. Depending on the settings of the Master, the 8128 Strobe will mimic the master flash pattern or use its own...

  • Page 22: Protocol

    DHCP is an IP standard designed to make administration of IP addresses simpler. When selected, DHCP will automatically configure IP addresses for each 8128 Strobe on the network. Alternatively the 8128 Strobe can be set to a static IP address.
  • Page 23: Dhcp Timeout

    Length of time (in seconds) following a request from the 8128 Strobe to the DHCP server that the Strobe will wait before assuming the server is not available. After such time, the 8128 Strobe will use its default address of 192.168.1.111. Default time is 60 seconds.
  • Page 24: Confirmation

    Log Size Consult Algo technical support Log Method Allows the 8128 Strobe to write to external Syslog server if the option for external (or both) is selected. Log Server If external (or both) is selected this is the address of the Syslog server on the network.
  • Page 25: Advanced Settings - Provisioning

    Advanced Settings - Provisioning Provisioning allows installers to pre-configure 8128 Strobe units prior to installation 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.
