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.
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.
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.
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.
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.
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.

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.
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.
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.
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.
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.
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.
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).
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.
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...
IP address for outbound proxy. A proxy (server) stands between a private network and the internet. STUN Server IP address for STUN server if present.

SIP server. Default setting is 3600 seconds (1 hour). Only change if instructed otherwise. Keep-alive Method If Double CRLF is selected the 8128 Strobe will send a packet every 30 seconds (unless changed) to maintain connection with the SIP Server if behind NAT.
Reconnect with higher priority server once available, even if backup connection still fine. Polling Method SIP message used to poll servers to monitor availability.

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.
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.
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.
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.
8. File algop8128.conf can now be uploaded onto the Provisioning server If using a generic configuration file, extensions and credentials have to be entered manually once the 8128 Strobe has automatically downloaded the configuration file. Document 90-00066 Algo Communication Products Ltd...
8128 will be ready to work immediately after the configuration file is downloaded. The MAC address of each 8128 Strobe can be found on the back label of the unit. System - Maintenance...
3. Login to the device again, and click on System. 4. In the Upgrade section, click on Choose File and select the 8128 Strobe firmware file to upload. Note that both the FW firmware and MD5 checksum files must be loaded.
Use on the advice of Algo technical support only. Optional Colored Lens Cover The 8128 Strobe is available with clear lens or optional colored covers in amber, blue, or red. The tinted color caps reduce the brightness and conspicuity of the 8128 Strobe.
3) Connect the equipment into an outlet on a circuit different from that to which the receiver is connected, or 4) Consult the dealer or an experienced radio/TV technician for help.
