This is an abbreviated programming manual addressing basic program settings for an IXG System using the IXG Support Tool. A complete set of instructions can be (IXG Operation Manual / IXG Support Tool Setting Manual) found at www.aiphone.net. In North America, visit www.aiphone.com/IXG for additional literature and media.
The IXG Support Tool is designed to batch configure all stations simultaneously, finding each station on the network by its MAC address. The IXG Series is designed to function on a managed network, however, the broadcast method used to find stations during the programming process may require advanced network configuration or routing to function properly in this environment.
Unit Types The IXG Series has six different Unit types: Entrance, Guard, Residential, Commercial, Inside Area, and Outside Area. Each has their own purpose, available features, communication paths, and station types. There are no limitations to the number of Units a system can have, but each Unit type has station quantity limitations.
